I see nothing wrong w/ wslmart fabric!Like everything you need to be SELECTIVE! I've seen stuff at LQS that I wouldn't buy. Walmart often have overuns or fabric that were overstock from a manufacture. The much prized FEEDSACKS from the 30's--how would they stand up to LQS standards?(they wouldn't) Feel it scrunch it inspect it for slubs or missprinting! Then buy it and make a quilt!I've gotten MANY wonderful fabrics from there-they held up great even after many washing(finished)-even w/o pre-washing!!
