For the second time (I should have known better) I had fabric in my cart while I was trying to make up my mind on something else to meet the $50 free shipping limit. I kept checking back for more fabric and then the sale fabric I wanted was not longer available! It was gone from my cart but other items were still there. I was disappointed as I really wanted this fabric. I called the store and at first the girl who answered said that they had lots of it. I told her I couldn't find it on the website. She said it should be there but then couldn't find it either. She said something about their "kitting it up" but that didn't register. I asked her if they were out of this fabric now and she said that it must have sold out.
Well, I checked today, two days later and found the fabric again (and promptly ordered). I remember this happened once before and I thought at the time that I must have done something wrong on the site for it to have disappeared and then reappear about a week later.
So, my advice is get it while you can, but if it seems to be sold out it just might not be. I can't think that they would have gotten new bolts of $3.44 a yard fabric in. Some of their clearance fabric has been listed for a long time so I don't know how much they order.
Anyway I have placed my order and next time I won't wait a few days and it could have sold out.

I should check and see if some I had back ordered is in.

I order quite a bit from Connectingthreads.com, this is good info to have, if that ever happens to me! I am like you, always looking to get $50.00 to get the free shipping...thats how they get us, eh??... pretty good plan they have in place!!

They will take your fabric out if you have it in your cart more than a couple of days and someone else wants it. It happened to me too.
