a long time on a quilt, you want good quality fabric in it.
I just ordered 5 yards of Kona black from The Fabric
Shack. They had it for $4.19 a yard and they have
half price shipping. You can order up to $75.00 worth
of fabric and the shipping is only $2.50. My 5 yards,
including shipping is only $23.45 and it is quilt shop only
quality. I love The Fabric Shack and order from them often.
They are fast, and their prices can't be beat. The link to
the Kona is below.

This shop has inexpensive Kona solids. I've done business with them before, and they are very good:

That is why I don't do Joann's or any other non quilting shop fabric any more...and ever the quilt shops, you have to make sure that they buy quality fabric...have seen some shops, smaller ones, that maybe skimp because of price...Stick to someone you believe in...you will be happier in the end
