I just got my second CT order in today. The quality has been good and I love the reproduction prints they have! Love it! The only problem I have with the fabric is that sometimes the color isn't exactly what I expected. But it coordinates well enough. I'm sure it's just variations in my monitor resolution.

I got my first sampling of thread in today and it's....okay. I tried a bit for hand quilting and it knotted up a little more than the Coats thread I usually use. I'm going to try again with a shorter thread--I tend to cut it a bit long to avoid re-threading! I think it will be great for machine sewing, though. Fingers crossed!

I also tried out the large-eye super glide quilting needles. They're wonderful...but they're so short I can barely use them! They're about half as long as the needles I usually quilt with! I was able to quilt the tiniest stitches I've ever done, but my arthritic little fingers just couldn't handle it!
