But when I do want a nice quality piece of quilting cotton I go to the internet. I have gotten some really nice name-brand fabrics from company's like Fabrics.com, Thousands of Bolts, Fabric Shack(?). Fabrics.com has free shipping on orders over $35.00 (I think that is right) and the Fabric Shack (seems like that is not the right name) has half price shipping all the time now! And I have found that the fabric I get looks pretty much just like what they show on the internet.
I live about 20 min from Fabric Shack (you were right with your spelling) and they also have some sale fabrics in the store. Fabric Shack is a great store with wide selections, I would recommend to anyone who comes through Ohio. We had another local quilt shop close recently (owner was relocating out of state) which had a great selection of Jo Morton fabrics.
