    I don't know about importing but Dinkeydoo in BC has great deals on rolls of Warm & Natural. Not too heavy to ship, either. Mine came through the post office.

    In 2021, my one and only black Friday shopping was for rolls of batting from WalMart. 9 yard rolls, 96" wide for $16!!! I still have 1 full one and one that I've taken off about 3 yards. It's Pellon Natural Cotton, and I'd never used it before so was a little cautious. Anything larger than a baby quilt gets sent to a LA; the one I've been using said it was great to work with. Had I known how happy I'd be with it, I would have bought more, lol. It is now about $54, still a lot less than some of them are.

    Doing some king sized quilts now and didn't want to try to piece it (again, I am being cautious - can't get that through the sewing machine and am leery of the iron on stuff to join batting) so bought a couple of king size wool batts. I ALWAYS search with "sale" in my search. I got packages of king sized wool from Hancock's of Paducah for $60 each.

    I also ordered swatches of FQS's brand batting. Has anyone tried it? It feels okay in the sample...

    Wow! I didn't know they had Glide thread also. I"m going to have to look at that.

    I would like to add to this great working list

    Linda's Electric Quilters--Texas: ([email protected] /)

    Kingsmen Quilting Supply (https://kmquiltingsupply.net) --these guys sell basically at wholesale prices, but only Midwesterners will benefit because sending large packages through 2 postal zones (as in Midwest plus Northeast/Northwest/Southern) is prohibitively expensive. They also sell thread, some notions, pantos, etc.at good prices and will 'stuff' other items inside a roll of batting to save customers on postage.

    Marshall dry goods - don't know if you're looking for a roll of 30 yards, but they have a poly cotton roll for $140 + shipping. I use it, and consider it good quality.
