The VIP fabrics at Wal-Mart are excellent. Some of their other fabrics are too loosely woven so beware of those. One local Wal-Mart on the Eastern shore of Mobile Bay still carries fabric, and the other does not.
I would highly recommend the Joann's in Pensacola and A&E Pharmacy in Pensacola. Well worth making the drive to visit these 2 shops. If you are not familiar with A&E, it is a very unique store. When you enter, you are in a pharmacy. On the right, they sell appliances. Go left and you are in a craft area. Back of crafts there is a huge - and I do mean huge - fabric store for quilters. They carry no decorator fabrics - just quilt fabric. Sales assoc. are very helpful. Also sell tools for quilters - rulers, threads, etc. You will feel like you have died and gone to heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
