I don't do much thrift shop or yard sales for fabric because there is almost never anything usable here. I don't "do" fabric lines, or follow any particular designer. I buy fabric that pleases me, usually with a plan in mind, not "just because". And I shop wherever I can find what I want. If that ONE shade of red I need happens to get found at Walmart and is decent quality, I'm BUYING it there! I am not nor ever will be a fabric snob. And I don't buy pre-cuts as a general rule. Had some gifted to me and I'm STILL trying to figure out what to do with them! Drives me nuts.
