I saw this post yesterday about the fat quarters at Big Lots so when I went to town today I just had to check it out. Lo and behold there they were! I think someone else found out before me. Don't get me wrong, there were still enough for me but probably not anyone else now! Couldn't pass up the deal -- $1.00 each!

FQ's are 1.00 at walmart also and they feel better. A rep told me once that MOda doesn't run the lower quality bolts anymore so even fabric walmart gets is good stuff most of the time. I still go by looks and if I like the design. I haven't bought any fabrics at either store in a while but I would if I saw someting I liked. I thought the FQ's at Big lots looked liked what JOann's has. The packaging was familiar. I am going to loo again tomorrow. I ahven't bought nay but maybe like you said for pincushions or non-quilt items.

My son has my camera, so I will have to post pics later. I can't find a brand name or anything on them, but they are a nice quality. The sticker on them just says "Fat Quarter", does anyone know what brand they are?

Debbie I wish my Wal-mart had fat quarters. The closest thing in our store is kits for aprons and kits for sherpa vests! That's the only fabric in ours--I look everytime I go in sometimes 2 or 3 times a week. Other than that we have 1 fabric store that specializes in heirloom sewing and an upholstery outlet that has a table of dress fabric remenants. Talk about your basic rural shopping. I either have to drive a hour for some quilting shops and Hancocks or I order online. Looking forward to Michaels opening. I know they usually don't have fabric but for kids school projects, Michaels will be a blessing.

We're getting a Big Lots store here in November. Yeah! I'll be checking it out for sure. I haven't really found anything at Harbor Freight I could use. They haven't had the blades the couple of times I've been there.
