Mine's going out next spring when they remodel again. I have found some good fabric and then some great fabric. Some was even on the $1.50 racks. You have to know your fabric tho. If you feel it, the hand can tell you a lot. Is it too stiff? Too much sizing. Is the pattern true or off print? Some can still be used according to the quilt pattern.

I've been looking for six months for a good turquoise and brown for a quilt. Stumbled on it at Walmart's for $2.44 a yard. There were two bolts each of two coordinating patterns and I bought all of it. No, it's not Hoffman or Kona but I don't really care. It won't get that much wear and I can really enjoy it. I know, post a pic. I'm working on it.
