The Hobby Lobby in our area DOES carry LQS quality fabrics--not all of the fabrics they carry are but many, many of them are absolutely WONDERFUL!!! The owners of Hobby Lobby feel that Sunday is a day that their employees should go to church or spend with their families---one of the many reasons I like to support their store.

We dont have a Hobby Lobby Here in Oregon to my knowledge. But I sure wish they did. I have a couple of friends in Louisiana that shops there regularly.

The HL in my area has reduced the size of the fabric department, but still carries a decent collection. I have used a fair amount of their fabric, and for the most part, my store is between JoAnn's and LQS. Prices here range from $3.99 and up. They have sales every week, and a 40% coupon several weeks each month.

I have used their material and it was fine. I think they are now selling online.

I like most of Hobby Lobby fabric. It's very pretty and reasonably priced.

I like that the owner is a Christian and does not open the stores on Sunday. Wish more stores were closed.

They carry nice fabric. Its like any other store you have to know what your buying. Check the end of the bolt. They do have good sales every week

I love Hobby Lobby! Their cotton fabrics range from $2.99 - $9.99 - they have a great variety of prints and some well known mfg's such as Alexander Henry.

I think their fleece is overpriced, but we also have a Hancock Fabric about 2 miles away from Hobby Lobby, and Hancock's fleece is always on sale.

I buy fabrics at Hobby Lobby and they have some real good 100% cotton fabrics. That is the only kind I buy, don't make any thing but quilts. As always buyer beware.
They are cheaper than Jo Anns, in this area.

We got Hobby Lobby about 5 years ago. Our store carries very nice fabrics and the prices range from $5.99 to $8.99 and fleece is a little higher. The fabric is almost always 30% off at our store and you can use the 40% coupon instead of 30%. They have finally started getting in some new designs in fabric and I am thrilled!! For the longest time, the patterns never changed, same fabric day in and day out.
