Cool Stuff Resources Guide
First of all, when you're looking for this cool stuff, check out your neighborly quilting stores. If they don't have it, maybe they will stock it for you, so you and your friends with help keep them in business! If you can't find the stuff you want at Michael's or Jo-Ann's, or if you just live too far away to shop in a real store, here are some online alternatives for you.
