I worked at a JoAnns for several years. We had many regular customers who made numerous, large purchases of fabrics for projects they were working on. We also had several professional dress makers, bridal shop type and others, who purchased fabrics to use for customers. Like others have said, you need to be mindful of the quality of the material you select. I like the Kona fabrics line and the Quilter's Cotton line. I am a purest when it comes to my quilts. I use only 100% cotton fabric and threads. Of course the exception is when I am doing embroidery work to include in my quilts.
