My JoAnn's accepts Hobby Lobby coupons. Go to Hobby Lobby and print it out. This week it's not a generic 40% off but they have them quite often. You can have the HL flyer with coupon sent to your email.

Go to the JoAnn's site for coupons too. There are lots this week.

Good Luck.

Be careful with the JA's look like minky. Some of it cannot be put in dryer.

I have never used Minky, is it hard to handle? and any pointers on sewing or cutting it would be great. When it is cut does it shehd around the edges and can you use a staight stitch on it?

Minky can be very messy, the LQS recommended using a seratted blade in my rotary cutter and that helped with the mess. It is stretchy but I adjusted after the fabric was sewn together. Some of my minky (minkee) I bought off the internet

I have seen many references to Minky lately and have tried to figure out what it was. An earlier post to this string indicated it was like fleece, then I a post that warned about getting real "Minky" so it didn't shrink. What is "real Minky" and is it labled that way or is this a quilters label? Do you use it for the back of regular cotton tops?

I never buy it with out my Joann's coupons. Same story with chenille. If you are not on their mailing list you can sign up on line and I think you get an immediate coupon. Can always check just inside the door at the store as well to see if they have any flyers left.

Their flyers that they have at the door don't have the extra...coupons that come on the mailer. It's the same way with Hancocks.
