I don't know just how many states CRAFT WAREHOUSE covers but I would suggest that everyone checks it out if you haven't already. We have one in Salem, Oregon & I just got 25+ yards of material there for a little over $56. They have a flat fold sale table where everything is $4.49 a yard but as my DH & I picked through the neat piles, we discovered prices as low as $.99 and $2.24 per yard. My purchase wouldn't have been so large had my DH not been there to get down on his hands & knees to look through the material piled under the table. So if you have this particular store any where near you, I suggest you take a fun trip there to see if you can find great prices like we did. My largest purchase was enough reproduction print for backing on my queen quilt for just $15.75. And most of the fabric was name brand, not WalMart quality fabric.

I actually like ordering online from Joann's.... It is always christmas because I end up with more yardage than I paid for. It is like they either don't know how much a yard is and I end up with 2, or they don't care. Free fabric... can't beat that.

I would love to do all my quilt shopping on the net but here's my problem. First, I'm a fabric "feeler". I can tell more about the fabric from feel than almost anything else. Second, I have a hard time trying to match or compare colors from the net. How do you gals and guys solve that one?
