Excellent. I go to the warehouse at least once every six weeks.

I placed an order just before Christmas. The service was great - they fixed an error immediately, most of the fabrics were okay (eight blenders), but the purple wide backing is nothing I would buy again. It is stiff even after laundering and is not softening as I handle it to FMQ. The light green wide piece was better. The batik is wonderful. I assume that's the joy of buying fabric online. The blenders were only $3.99 and while they are not super high quality, they will be very usable - the colors are very nice and the feel is okay.

I love Marshalls. Good quality fabric at a great price. Their shipping is very fast and reasonable. I believe up to 10 yards ship for $5.95 -- I can't drive to the next town for that price!

If you order online, order the name brand fabric. It's the same as the quilt shops sell. The blenders and theme fabric are usually like the fabric sold at JoAnns and Hobby Lobby. I wish you could see the shelf full of cheater cloth. Beautiful patterns and colors. Great for totes and projects. The sale bin is full of everything usually $1 a yard. The front of the warehouse is the fabric store. Fabric is sold by the yard. The back of the warehouse is the wholesale, you buy the bolt. My friends and I buy bolts of what each of us likes or wants and then we split the bolts between us. This way we get different fabrics for the price of one bolt.

Thanks every one for the good advice. I will add Marshall's Dry Goods to my fabric supply list.
