I have been ordering from CT for some time as well as shopping at LQS. I happen to like all of what I received and their thread is the only kind I use. Now, I am not the most knowledgeable quilter around, but what I do know is this fabric makes beautiful quilts. I store it with all of my other stash, and when I'm picking my fabrics for a quilt, I don't look and say, oh this is from CT, keep looking !!! It is nice fabric
