Did you buy it at JoAnn's? It is rumored that the Kona at JoAnn's is a lesser quality than "regular" Kona.
not a rumor, it is not the same quality at Joanns or at Hancocks...the one at Hancocks now is so thin it is horrid!
What? Oh no! I've been working on a hand-pieced Ocean Waves with Kona unbleached muslin from Joanns. This is bad!!!
