I don't buy my quilting fabs from WM.... It may look the same, but it's not for the most part. What we learned while working at the quilt shop is this.....the manufacturers do 4-6 differnt qualities of fabric...sort of like threads.... They will run the same prints on blank fabrics....as the fabrics get closer to the end the "worse' or lower the fabric quality becomes. WM buys the best deals they can get to pass the"savings" on to the public. Buy a piece of fabric at WM and then go to your local quilt shop and find the same fabric and feel the diff in quality! Not to say that all their fab it end runs, but please be careful whn purchasing and the same can hold true with Hancocks with their sale fabs on the big tables.....Just a word to the wise!
