Default 75 cent fat quarters

This is the last day of JoAnn's sale on fat quarters. 75 cents. This is part of the Daffodil Dash. I don't know if it's all stores, but in our area it's in the flyer. Pretty good buy in these days!

Happy Spring!

I have been disappointed recently by the quality of their fabrics. Check the quality before you buy.

I did buy some but they are for yo-yos for a baby toy, so I'm sure they are fine for my use. Thanks for the heads-up on the quality though. Wish they had Christmas fabrics fat quarters.

I bought 10 orange, but I would not brag about the fabric content.

In a lot of cases, Joann's is asking LQS prices but not the quality. Very disappointing. If you do purchase from them, I would recommend washing and drying before cutting. I'd rather give my cash to a LQS.

I've gotten some very good quality FQ bundles from Tuesday Morning lately.

Joanns sales are created in Corporate headquarters in Ohio and are nationwide. They only difference is the quantity of product to various stores (the smaller traditional stores get a smaller variety). And the actual pattern featured in the ad may not appear in every store - but the brand and style will be there. Even items being discontinued or clearanced are dictated from corporate.

I haven't been happy with the quality, either. They've got plenty of online competition with better quality. That said, I will use the lower quality fabrics on practice sandwiches for FMQ or for a charity doll quilt.
