I purchase most of my fabric at HOBBY LOBBY. Prices are reasonable. Especially with the 40% off one cut. We do not have a Joann's here in the Rio Grade Valley. We do have one in Traverse City, Michigan. Guess I'll find another source, like on line.

I agree! I bought some "filler" fabric at Hancock's before Christmas only because LQS was closed when I was able to go shopping. I was thankful I only needed a small amount. I really do prefer the quality of the LQS and I like supporting a small business. I would have loved to receive a gift certificate to LQS for Christmas, but I didn't. I think my mom is intimidated by LQS and I told her not to bother with Joanne's or Hancock's. My mom sews but doesn't quilt. Oh well...maybe next year? In defense of my mom though I really did get some GREAT presents. I was happy with what I got!

When I got up to the register, the young lady asked why I looked so sad, I told her the prices have gone up so much since I have been there last. THEN she tells me they were bought out last week by the people who own Pet Smart, and fabric is going up NEXT WEEK $2-$3 more per yard, I almost cried.

I am in Fallbrook, CA...rather rural... and we do not lock our doors...the house is old and has many windows and 7 french doors ...anyone can brake in...so why lock things up!
