I have been following the thread regarding WalMart bringing Fabric back to the stores. I along with many others on the board support my (1) LQS with occasional trips (1 Hour away ) to WalMart for my fabric. I use most of my WalMart cottons for pillowcases for soldiers and some of the nicer cottons I have bought for a future quilt. Here is a quilt made from WalMart Cotton. The coral backing and slashing is from JoAnn's. The WalMart cotton is very nice. I love my quilt even though I didn't make it.
My friend Karyn made it for me. She also is the one who has revived my interest in sewing/quilting after a 7-8 year hiatus.

This is the beginning

The Walmart stores close to me still have no fabric. I keep hoping...
