Using Attribute pricing only and not including base price of an item

Hello
We sell fabric. In my perfect world, I would have a dropdown order quantity box that would include "fat quarters" and yardage. However, I cannot not seem to find one for ZenCart (and we love our Zencart).

I set up attributes for our kits variants, love that option.

Now I am trying to set up a "fat quarter" attributes option on the fabric so that when people see the fabric and decide that they only what a fat quarter instead of the half yard minimum, they could just use the dropdown and order up to 6 fat quarters. Sounded simple enough but when I did it (see here) -
http://www.quiltsinmontana.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=20992
It always prices it with the 1/2 yard minimum. I really can't change the minimum on the order otherwise we end up with all sorts of quantities. I also had it as a separate category for many years and we just didn't get any traffic in the category plus customers were constantly requesting that we have the fat quarter option with the yardage.

Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
Mona

Is there anyone out there who can help me with this?
or
Is there a drop down quantity menu for ZenCart that can be formatted to do this?
Thanks again

Check this thread, there is a similar conversation on-going and maybe some help can be obtained from there. I had some other ideas earlier, but they don't fit your requirements of maintaining a minimum like you have setup.

I do not see a link to a thread.
