Default I will never buy cheap fabric again!

I'm making quilts for my daughter using (in part) a fat quarter bundle that my eldest begged me to buy at Wal-Mart because of its fairy-princess design. It's is so frustrating! It slides, it bunches, it's so thinly woven as to be practically see-through, I can't tell the right side from the wrong side, and it wrinkles just sitting on a flat surface. It's making this quilt far less fun to make.

I know I sound like a total snob, but I'm sticking with the good stuff from now on. Even if I need to buy on sale and maybe can't have the exact designs I love all the time, it's worth it to have a less-frustrating sewing experience.
