We don't have a Hobby Lobby in our area, and I've only been in one once. At the time I wasn't quilting so I didn't look at the fabric.

I'll be near a Hobby Lobby this weekend and was wondering what their fabric was like. Is it like JoAnn's? Do they have different fabric, or pretty much the same stuff?

I have a $5.00 off on a $20 purchase coupon I would like to use if I go.

Thanks.

http://hobbylobby.com/weekly/large_view.cfm

here is this week's add...50% off seasonal fabric...lots of good stuff there.

Some fabric is great, others just so so...gotta do the feel test to find the good stuff.

So much good crafty stuff there.

It's not quilt store, but I think it's better than Joanns.

We have very nice quality fabric at the Hobby Lobby here. Most is around $6.99 to $8.99 a yard and is most always 30% off. They also carry Kona cotton for $6.99 a yard. If you look at their calicos, you may even find some fabrics for $3.99 a yard. It is just as nice as LQS fabrics and holds up very well.

I agree with the other's who said that it is better than Joanns fabrics. They do have some that feels awful, though.

I love Hobby Lobby. If you find a fabric you want and they do not have the yardage you need in stock they will special order it for you. Or the one here do. Also, Hobby Lobby stores here are not open on Sunday. Happy shopping.
