I have tried to support my LQS but can't afford them anymore at $11.50-13.00/ yd. I have bought from CT and liked the feel of their fabric. I have heard that all fabric is being printed overseas. My dd and her college friends were boycotting WM. I remarked to her, WM = parttime, no benefits, low wages, everyhing made overseas. Macy's= parttime,no benefits, low wages, everything made overseas. The difference was in quality. Most people buy what they can afford. As an aside, DH just bought his new suit and shirt for son's wedding. Shirt $ 75 made in china.
