I appreciated your post. Having not yet jumped on the bandwagon( so to speak) . I was greatful ...so I 'm not tempted by the price to buy several packages , only to be one of the "not happy" group. You input was helpful to me so if I do try them ... just dip my toe in .. before I dive in.
We will all have differing opinions..... just read the many threads on Jo Ann and Walmart fabrics VS Local quilt shop.
