You can't beat Connecting Threads or Keepsake Quilting. They have lots of collections at reasonable prices. Great material and good service. They have sales and free shipping.

This is so true! If you are not a quilter you don't realize how much thought goes into fabric choices besides color!

Thanks for all of the suggestions! We have a no GC rule in our swap. I'll be choosing the fabric and putting a link to the specific fabric on my wish list. I can't imagine my MOM picking out fabric for me!

Equilter.com is really good. And if you call them they are very helpful.

If you like batiks, Fabric Fanatics are great for them. Their on-line store is huge and photos are pretty true to color

Go to a bookstore and look through current magazines. I would be careful asking non-sewers to buy material. Maybe it would be better to ask for a gift card to a specific store, like Hancocks of Paducah.
