I have bought fabrics from Hobby Lobby and have been pleased with what I got. As mentioned, you do have to feel the fabric to make sure you are getting the quality that you want. I love their themed fabrics, i.e., Christmas, Halloween, fall fabrics. Love shopping throughout the entire store. :lol:

Our Hobby Lobby has great fabric, but I find that the notions area is a bit small. Not alot of bias tapes, etc.
I just mentioned to my daughter the other day, I needed to go with her there, just to walk around the entire store. They have some of the neatest stuff.
Hubby will go there, but he wants to go in and out too quickly for me, I need to be able to walk up and down each asle...there is so much to look at !!

Like all fabric only YOU can decide if it is right for you and your projects. You really have to watch for flaws, they will NOT discount for those flaws either!
Most of it is thin, it ravels, and fades quickly...you just have to feel it, hold it up the light, run a white hanky over the dark colors, and run your nail across the cut edge....but then you need to those things at joanns, hancocks, and esp walmart...
remember the quality of fabric you use is what makes your project quality!

I agree, a little better than JoAnns.
