I was really trying hard to avoid naming names of both the Big Box and LQS retailers. I was trying to draw focus on fabric quality, cost, and use only-not individual retailers.
To clarify, my local Walmart(s)-I have several within driving distance from my house-no longer carry fabrics. They still do carry sewing supplies (always buy most of my sewing/quilting supplies there) and I bought my last 2 sewing machines from them less than a year ago. For inexpensive workroom type of fabrics it's either Joann or my discounter fabric sources in my garment/fashion district. The best quality fabrics come from the garment/fashion district or from recommended online sources.
All of my utility everyday quilts are from Joann fabrics. They do stand up to wear if you rotate them in and out of use.
