Well, gals, I guess it all boils down to personal preference. Must admit that when I first ordered from CT I did so because they said it was Made in the USA and, it probably was at the time. Most of us just don't like change, myself included, but with inflation where it is and expected to go higher, I think they will continue to find the best quality they can. We have several quilt shops within a 75 mile radius of my home but, I too as mentioned by someone else, have purchased fabric from them lately that is not the same standard as before. One piece frayed so badly I wasn't sure I would have enough left for my 1/4" seam allowance. I continue to use CT when they have what I'm looking for and I've not been disappointed so far.
