Well said, stillclock. Buy what you like and can afford. My DGM was a scrap quilter using cut remnants from the local Judy Bond blouse factory. (Anyone remember that brand??) The quilt on my bed has fabric from a remnant leftover from a homemade top when I was in 7th grade. To me, the memories of the quilter and love put into the quilt are far more important than where the fabric was purchased.
