I have to agree with most here regarding Walmart fabrics. Unless you can touch and feel it, see it I would not buy it. Very little of Walmarts fabrics are of good quality. You also have to be careful and read all it says. I've seen fabric at our Walmart that says 100% cotton and it is so thin you can see through it and they sell that stuff for $3.50 on up per yard.

Once in a while you will be able to buy a better quality from them but it is $5.95 on up per yard and yet it still is not what I would call LQS quality.

I guess I've gotton spoiled by the LQS in a neighboring town which is only about 20 minutes from me who sells the good quality stuff from $5.95 to $9.95 a yard and every week they put some of that same stuff on the $1.98 table to make room for new fabrics coming in.

What little I have bought at Walmarts over the last 6 months I've been giving to my GD who is 8 who loves to sew to use for her dolls and such.

Walmart having two yards for $7 something online is not a good deal especially when you'll have to pay shipping unless they will send it to a local store for pick-up.

So if any of you decide to buy it online "let buyer beware" you sometimes don't get what you pay for.
