Lots of people here shop at joann's, for fabric notions, what have you. I don't know who would say a real quilter wouldn't shop at joanns. I get mostly books and notions, but have gotten some very nice fabric from them. As long as you know quality you can shop safely at any joanns and get great deals especially with sales and coupons. I got like 12yards of fabric for 60 bucks would have cost me like 150 at an LQS not that LQS fabric isn't worth it. I get cheap practice muslin, and I got some nice muslin at joanns the other day for my embroidery.
