Where should I buy my fabric?

Chain and Discount Fabric Stores

Large chain and discount fabric stores will provide more selection and economical choices of fabric. These stores often have sales and special discounts. However, there is generally less knowledgeable service available from larger fabric stores and it is more important to know what you are buying.

you should be careful of quality when purchasing from a large chain or discount store too. Chain stores typically offer a lesser quality fabric than you will find in a specialty/quilt store.
