There have been some discussions previously and I believe the quality of the fabric was not what was expected for the price.

I have used another site for making my own fabrics. It is:

I really like the work they do and have had all of my memory quilts made up of prints they made for me.

I participated in one challenge. It was my first so the learning curve is quite steep, but I did enjoy it.
