It is like other chain stores, some is good and some not so much :wink: But I have seen the same in some LQS also. Feel it, hold different brands up to the light and look through the single thickness. Can you see a tighter woven cloth? Can you see through it like a double layer of cheesecloth? Look at the printing in it, does it look nice all over? By really checking over different manufacturers fabrics, you will start seeing and feeling the difference. Hand dyes and batiks will have a heavier feel to them due to the way that they are dyed, but you can still look to see what the quality of the fabric looks like :wink: :D:D:D
I shop at all of the chain stores, online shops and LQS, where ever I can find what I want and for the price I am willing to pay :D:D:D
