I totally agree w/ you about Wally-World fabric. All of mine here in Fl are phasing out fabric. I only have one place to buy, Joanns. I wait for their 40% off ads before I buy. We do have a Quilt Store in Sarasota, but they have nothing under $9/$10 a yard and I think that's way too much. I always have to feel the fabric, so I don't order from the net. Do any of you girls remember when our Grandmother's cut up old clothing for quilts? They never bought new fabric.Unlike us, they made quilts from necessity, not for pleasure. I'm thinking of trying some thrift stores for good solid items that I can cut and use for quilts. Big skirts would be good I think.
Happy Quilting.
