    I want to attempt a rag quilt for my not-yet-born grandchild and need a source for a good quality flannel. My small town only has Joann's and I would like more choices. I would appreciate any suggestions, preferably online sources. TIA

    I bought baby print flannel at Connecting Threads and it's very good quality. I will be buying more of it when I need flannel.

    I'd try thousandsofbolts.com. She always has good brands at really reasonable prices.

    Absolutely Connecting Threads - their fabrics and flannels are excellent and the prices are great! I especially love that when I buy charm squares I pay the same price per yard, no matter how small the cuts are. So you can buy the precuts for the same low price per yard and get more variety that way. Love their website!

    fabric.com is another place for good quality & large selection- and they offer free shipping at $35 --- which is a bonus!
