I have to agree that most of JoAnns fabric are not as good as the quilt shops. If you have to pay 9-12 a yard for fabric you might as well go to the LQS and ge the best. Most of JoAnns fabrics are made especially for them. Check out the end of the bolt. I use there coupons but only for notions and batting. i have had so much trouble with the fabric from JoAnns bleeding that I don't even bother with their fabic anymore.
