Just an FYI, I bought several of the FQ packs there and at least one FQ out of every combo pack was irregular. I suspect that's why Tuesday Morning got them. There are streaks, blubs or missing printing on at least one FQ. Not a big deal if you plan on cutting around it. But, the ones they have now with the Pink Panther or black and white combos are definitely "seconds" or rejects.

I just bought a package of 7 FQs ($2.99) @ TM: 4 tonals (dk. blue, lt. blue, teal and dk. pink), a large polka dot, a hot pink with white pin dot stripes, and a light blue plaid. Couldn't find any manufacturer markings on any of them. Seems like decent quality, maybe the same as the $5.99-$6.99/yard JoAnn's fabric. Will use them in scrap quilts.
My TM's didn't seem to have any other craft items, with the exception of a few skeins of yarn. Since it is next door to the grocery store I go to, I will keep checking for more quilting items and fabric.

Yeah, some are better than others. I've passed on quite a few too but I'm always on the watch for the good deals that come along once in a while.
