A trip for us to get to a quilt store or a Joanns is 45 min. We get there about every couple of weeks so I understand about distance, selection. I shop there of course and fill in with online. I like Missouri Star Quilt Co. They have daily deals - some are crazy amazing and a flat $5 shipping. I like fabric.com but like to purchase $50 to receive free shipping. I just heard of Marshall Dry Goods from this board and although I have not shopped there - yet - they really seem to have a great selection and good prices and a very fair shipping charge - $6.56 up to 10 yards! It's just fun to shop no matter how I get it in!
