Fons and Porter has a deal with Connecting Threads thru June 28. 20% off yardage. That makes their $4.96 fabrics only $3.96! Quality is inbetween JoAnn and LQS. After you login and select the fabrics you want, enter TRYITFP in the "code" box on the shopping cart page. Free shipping over $50. I just ordered 15 yards of mixed fabrics from their Mirage basics to use as backings for charity quilts (we make ours from 30"x40" to 42"x52" as a rule). Of course, I stuck in some stuff for me!

Good luck

Is it worth it to search out onlines stores? I worry that I will spend so much time looking that I will get discurraged. I know many of you buy online - but I myself never had.
Any suggestions for "good" quality, low price, cheap shipping? I have to admit - Joanne's is the highest quality I normally go. And I know that you get what you pay for - but I am still only will to do 5-6 dollars per yard. Is it worth my time to research?
