So, I thought I'd sort of test it out and makes ones I REALLY care about out of the quilt store fabric and others out of the less expensive type.

By the way, me? I'm never nosy, but always curious!

Ever hear of the saying "Curiosity killed the cat"? If I was a cat, I'd have been dead a long time ago!
Yeah, Curious Sharon, that sounds way better than nosey Sharon!! Means the same, but hey, I'll take relief wherever I can get it! lmbo

Thanks for 'splaining. Thought it was likely that reason, but could have been colors. I learned after buying and paying top dollarsssss in a nice quilt shop to stretch test my fabrics and to not believe what is on the cardboard it's wrapped on. It wasn't what it said on there, but the stretch test would have told me that if I hadn't trusted so easily!

Happy Quilting, do let us know your results, k? Curiousity may kill this old cat yet!!
