Two local LQS have gone out of business in the last 18 months. I will support my LQS as often as possible. I have to drive an hour to get to the closest one, so I don't get to go more than once every few months. JoAnns in closer, but they don't have the quality I'm looking for. I have cheaper fabric, and I'm using it up as fast as I can. I want my quilts to last several lifetimes. The better the fabric, the longer it will last. The cheaper fabric will do for utility quilts and practice.

Maybe if we all limit our purchases then they will have no choice but to lower prices and keep the quality. I look at the prices for notions and I am glad I bought them years ago. Consumers need to show companys who really has the power. Something to consider.
