The local Mennonite shops are $2-3 less than the non-Menonite LQS. The quality is the same. Today, I stopped at one with my m-i-l--they have LOTS more than fabric than the last time I was there. I hadn't been to this one in years... I selected three bolts of black and white fabric for $5.98 a yard. There was a red dot on the bolt--which meant it was $2.98 a yard! I didn't know it until the young lass was ripping my yard off. :lol: They will be having red dot bolts from Nov-March since business is usually slow.

But--I did spend $130 several weeks ago at a LQS for flannel I couldn't find elsewhere--killed me to pay the price but it was for a Christmas gift. Usually I stick to their sale items only--$5 a yard.

Quilt in a Day website has awesome fabric--I paid $5 a yard with shipping! but--I prefer to see the colors in person.
