And perhaps they just happen to like a particular line of fabric?
And perhaps they have a store, and are promoting their own product lines?

I too, try only buying "designer" fabric. I feel if I put that much time in something I want the assurance of good quality fabric. I do get most on sale, and watch for designers I know give good quality all the time. My first quilts had fabics that were not as nice, I definitely can tell the difference by the feel.

I get to sew on designer fabrics cause I make samples for the LQS. It taught me that there is a big difference at times in the quality. But, then you do pay for that quality. But, now that I have slowed down a bit in my quilting, I am able to pay more for my fabric as I am not going through it so fast, so I go for the designer fabrics when I can.

I have enough disposable income to buy designer fabric but I seldom pay full price. I'll wait for that line to go on sale or on clearance. I don't mind that is not the current LQS fabrics. I can always find a sale online.
