    Default buying fabric from Connecting Threads

    I am in a hurry to make a quilt as a wedding present and I have seen a kit in Connecting Threads catalog that I like. I have never purchased fabric from CT before. Any advice? please.........

    I have bought from them, no problem. The kits can be very inexpensive when on sale, like $4 or $5 per yard. I have been known to buy a kit just because I like the fabric even if I don't like the fabric if it is on sale.

    I have ordered many yards of fabric and have always been pleased. The one kit that I ordered came with plenty of material and was very easy to follow the directions. They also have specials for batting. Many buy their thread and are satisfied but I am finding my Bernina is a little picky about it. So to answer your question....good fabric and wonderful service. Don't you just love their new line of fabrics? Drool...drool!!!

    I've done two of their kits and loved them. Plenty, plenty of fabric.

    I love love love CT fabrics. Sometimes I just sit in my fabric room and
    run my hand over some of their fabric just to get "need" for fabric cured
    for a very short time.

    I've ordered twice and both times I have been pleased. I haven't heard any negative comments.

    I have ordered several kits from Connecting Threads and have had no issues. I would not hesitate ordering from them again. Highly recommended!
