I shop at quilt stores, buy some there, but prices are an issue, I buy at Hancock, Joann on sale and online at Connecting Threads and wherever site I find a fabric I need. I also hunt on Ebay for fabric - only buy the manufacturer's and fabric lines that I know - right now I have way too much on hand so I try not to buy (oh my - it is worse than stopping smoking), I frequent thrift stores, but now I buy there only if the fabric calls out to me. Never have found fabric at yard sales.

I agree with davis2se! The Fabshophop has showed me many great shops as well as our LQS I frequent. It does help to know your fabric lines before you order...haven't been disappointed yet! Usually if you call an online quilt shop with a question their helpfulness is superb!

I go to Hobby Lobby for Kona solids and sometimes they just have the cutest prints, and one LQS that is almost exclusively Moda fabrics. The vast majority of what I buy is online.
www.fatquartershop.com is my favorite.
www.hancocksofpaducah.com - I just ordered for the first time recently. Probably won't again. A full 7 days between ordering and shipping is unacceptable to me.
www.fabricworm.com - They create their own coordinating FQ bundles by mixing and matching different designers and collections. It's a great idea and I have loved their selection and service.
www.connectingthreads.com - Don't love their fabric, but will be ordering thread from them soon.
www.fabricseeds.com has just about the cheapest pre-cut prices around and incredibly fast shipping.

Whittlesfabrics.com has a nice selection and really nice prices!

I shop at my LQS, JoAnn's or Hancock, occasionally, Walmart (surprisingly ours has a good selection), and Fabric Hut in Norfolk, VA. Online I've purchased from Rushin' Tailor Quilt Alaska (rushintailor.com) they have gorgeous fabrics I haven't seen anywhere else & prices are good, and at Fabric.com.

I usually have the fabric line I want and put it in the search engine and then go to the online stores that carry it and buy it from the stores that carry the most. I also buy from www.shabbyfabrics.com or www.fatquarters.com. Sometimes I buy from thousands of bolts but not too often. I buy from my LQSs all the time also.

I buy online a lot. I stick with fabric from major manufacturers; i.e., Moda, RJR, etc., and have had excellent luck. I use Missouri Quilt Company, and several others that I don't remember at the moment. Quiltbug.com has good stuff. And Keepsake Quilting.

On line I buy at fabric.com, quilthome.com and hawthornethreads.com. From placing the order and delivery all are fast, efficent and haven't had any hassles yet. Quilthome even includes a handwritten thank you that makes it all the more special!

My favorite online stores are Connecting Threads and Fabric.com, Have always had good results from both places! And some really good bargains!

For on-line shopping I use Thousandofbolts.com and Whittles.com - their fabric is really quality and very reasonable in price. I usually have my order in a week.
