When I buy fabric, it is usually just for stash. I see what colors I need and look for them to fill in any holes. So, when I decide on a quilt, then anything goes if it's on the shelf. I do not like cheap feeling fabric, so I would say that there is very little of that regardless of where I bought it or what I paid for it. All of my quilt are made to be used - I honestly don't give a flip if they are still around 20 years from now or not.
