I agree about JoAnns, google them and sign up for there sales flyer at a store. Most things will eventually go on sale at 50 or 40 % off. Thats the time to buy. I buy mostly quilt shop fabrics tho as i feel the quality is a much better grade than what joanns offers. tho they are starting to carry some better quality now. also if you join a local guild most quilt shops will give a discount if you show your membership card.
