You're so right Mattee! It's nice to be able to spend our money (or go into dept:>) as we see fit. I looooooove expensive, nice fabric. I just wish there were concrete evidence as to X manufacturer sends X quality fabric here or there. And yes, I do believe what the one poster said is true...would they really admit in writing that they send less quality goods to a certain store? It's all very confusing. But, you just need to meddle through, buy what you like and what you believe to be worth your money. And then go on your merry way, because this is JUST a hobby and people are dead and starving across the globe with warfare, pollution and catastrophe. What kind of fabric we buy is pretty low on the global totem pole.
