By the way - it's 118 miles round trip to JoAnn's so I'm not afraid to try on line. Thanks so much for your help.

Have you tried Overstock.com? I was amazed at all the name brand sewing products they have, and I believe their shipping is only $2.95. I've bought several items from that site and always sastisfied with the quality etc. Will try them for sewing notions if I have a large enough order.

MaryJo's Cloth store in Gastonia NC has excellent prices and will ship to you. When I lived in NC, my sewing cronies and I would make a pilgrimage about 3 times a year and stock up. She has her private brand of Warm & Natural that is fabulous, and that is what most of us would buy. If you call, you can order anything in the store over the phone if you know what you want.

Normally I use the coupons from Hancock's or Joann's, or only shop when they have 50% off sales on batting. I have gotten good deals on the Fusi-Boo with coupons also.
