Wow...what a touchy subject, even for as many times as this thread comes up! I, having worked at WalMart, walk through the fabric dept. every time I am there. I see and feel great fabrics all the time and in all price ranges. I have found great fabrics on the clearance table and can usually see a great quilt coming together with the fabrics chosen for their quilt of the month. For the limited area, and department personnel who have to work everywhere in the store I think they do a great job. I too support my local stores and I support Walmart as they are local too. JMHO
