If there is enough time left on the auction, I'll ask the seller for the name of the manufacturer (if they don't give it in their listing)
That way I can buy what I know is quality fabric. I have purchased before without knowing and although the fabric I got was "nice", it was disappointing for the end price paid.
I'm like most here, I like the feel of good quality fabrics.
BTW--I love your avatar!
