My only gripe is that they never put the "regular" and "premium" fabrics on sale at the same time, and I always end up with a mix of both, so I pay top dollar for some and not others. I wish they'd just have "all quilt fabric on sale" sometimes!!
When they only put certain fabrics on sale, they know you will probably need something else (not on sale) to coordinate with the "on sale" items. Marketing strategic #1.
