Default Minnesota Quilt fabric?

Does anyone know a good place to shop for good quilt fabric cheap? Like a discount fabric outlet or something like that in the Minneapolis area? Visiting daughter there in April. Actual town is Prior Lake. Thanks for any input.

Mill End Textile is good. They have several locations around the metro area and coupons on their website. Just google Mill End Textile

Another vote for Mill End; I shop at the one in Burnsville quite frequently and its one of my favorites. Also try SR Harris; its in Brooklyn Park, about a 30-40 minute drive from Prior Lake. All of their regularly priced fabric is 50% of and they have a HUGE selection, even almost overwhelming but its still worth it.

There is a fabric shop in St. Paul on Grand Avenue. The name of it is Treadle Yard Goods. Their fabric is NOT the cheapest, but there is a section there with 50% off (that's my part of the store (haha). They have fat quarters and the staff is so very nice and helpful. Actually, they are having their annual sale starting tomorrow. Got lots to get tomorrow!!!!!! Hope you can give that shop a chance - it is the only true fabric shop in St. Paul! There is also a quilt shop, I am sure, in Shakopee. My daughter in law buys my birthday and Christmas presents there (God love her) and Shakopee is only a hop, skip and jump from Prior Lake! Enjoy your visit here!!! Edie

My LQS is in Lonsdale, and called Quilting by the Hearth. Prior Lake is just a jump...
