I'm with most of the others here. I buy where I can afford. I have been in a quilt shop or 2. The fabric is just out of my price range. I buy fabric online from two places I love and have wonderful customer service. I have made my quilts with, walmart, joann's, hancocks. No complaints from anyone who has received a quilt from me. I don't have any quilting shops near me, have to wait to travel
