I have bought some very nice fabric from Walmart. If you are experienced in sewing you should be able to tell the difference between the good fabric and the not so good by just the way they feel. The Cranston line is very nice, no fading and last a long time. Our local WM is beginning to shring their fabric and craft inventory. The next nearest place to buy is 75 miles away. Makes good sense for them to keep stocking fabric and sewing notions. We'll see.
