    I do buy from our ONE LQS when she has 50 & 40% off.
    The 'same' place, the manufacturer, does several runs of the same pattern, and they're not all printed on the 'same' quality of cotton. The highest quality and is what we usually find at the LQS. Walmart and JoAnn's don't buy the highest quality fabrics.

    this argument goes on forever ... and too often.

    i've bought very nice fabs from walmart and some real stinkers from quilt shops. and the other way around, as well.

    buy what you want. buy where you want. don't listen to criticism from those who buy elsewhere.
