    I was only at one once. They had fabric equal to or a little better than Joannes. Loved the store, they have some really neat things for the home.

    Hi Dana, we are neighbors and I went yesterday to check out the new Hobby Lobby and fell in love with it. I bought fabric and felt is was as good or better than Joann's. I also shop at the Diva Shop in Derry and you can't beat that shop.

    I use their fabrics but do pay attention to what I buy. Like the others said, some is better than others but I have been satisfied. Be sure to go on line and sign up for their weekly ad as it will send you you the weekly coupons and I use the 40% one a lot.

    I've gotten some nice fabric at Hobby Lobby but in our area they tend to be higher priced than Joanne's. The selections not as large so it's easier to see. I've gotten some great "themed" fabrics for grandkids & use a 40% off coupon for the largest cut.

    Like anywhere, the quality may vary. I have bought fabric at Hobby Lobby and have been pleased with the quality.

    I use Hobby Lobby fabric all the time. You just have to check too make sure of the quality of the fabric. You don't want a really thin fabric. Stop by there everyday on my way home from work to see what's new. There Calico and cotton fabric is always on sale with 30% off. Every Sunday if you go to there website you can print a coupon that may range from 40% - 75% off and one item per day. Each week they have a different coupon. I basically use my coupons for quilt magazine. This week they have the 40% coupon and Simplicity patterns on sale for 99 cent. Good Luck.

    quality is somewhere between Walmart & a quilt shop, closer to JoAnns quality. They have a variety of fabric types, not just cottons. It's be wise to check them out yourself.

    I got the panels for my church raffle table runner there, have been able to find religious prints other than Christmastime and some other specific needs when I could not find them at JoAnn, Hancock or LQSs
