the quilt that you are making. If it's for a donation to a Charity, I'd used fabric from Joanne's and Walmart. If it is for a special person I will buy at my local LQS.
If you are making a heirloom quilt and are having it quilted by a Long arm quilter, I would definitely use LQS fabric.
I have bought from Walmart, Joanne's and LQS, plus Keepsake
quilting. I hope this helps in your decision making. Eiltcoq.
