Dear Armywife - I am a German quilter in Germany! There are quiltshops here, but I wold recommend that you order your fabric from the States on the internet - German fabric prices are ridiculously high. A good website with good prices is:
www.thousandsofbolts.com. Hope this helps.! And please DON'T buy German muslin: it is too thick and when you wash it you end up with 1000000 wrinkles that refuse to be ironed out.
