The Valentine"s day fabrics are probably in stock now and maybe Easter.But if you want to get a good deal on Christmas fabric,I bought some at JoAnn's for 50% off last weekend.The stores don't want to keep their holiday stock from last season til next season.I always buy my Christmas fabric after January, then I can get twice as much for the same price.You'll be able to do the same for each holiday.I never buy before a holiday,always after and save money to keep the cost of making my quilts down.
