When you say that Joann's says "delicate", are you referring to the washing instructions at the bottom of the fabric descriptions? If so, then I would kind of take that with a grain of salt because I have made a ton of baby and donation quilts with fabric from Joann's and some of them have been washed about a billion times in a regular wash load with no problem.

If you are looking for better quality fabric, though, there are so many places online...my favorite is Fabric Shack, and their shipping is only $2.50 for under $75.00. I swear I order from that place once a week.
