After yesterday's experience I will be doing as much of my supplies shopping as I can at my favorite local shop, Country Fabrics in Shiloh, OH. I bought a 45 mm rotary blade there for $6.98. Later, at Joanne's for items not carried in the Shiloh store, the same blade was $16.99. Even with my 50% off coupon it wasn't as good at the Shiloh price. I know this doesn't help if you are not in north central Ohio because they do not take online orders, but I have to think the same might be true of other "local" shops run by Mennonites or Amish. Fabric prices are a little cheaper but we must all be aware of the cotton crop problems.
