I find this appalling! And for the new quilter wondering how much fabric to buy, this puts a whole new slant on what you want to keep on hand. I don't know about all of you, but I don't have an area reserved for receipts. I would be over run with paper. And I really only have a couple of drawers. I prefer to use those drawers for something other than receipts. And if you bought it over a year ago, how many places are going to let you return it?

I mentioned the lack of quality control at my LQS. She said that she has heard that, but because she pretty much sticks with Moda. And I can attest to the shops cutting of fat quarters. They even cut a fat quarter, even if they have to make it for you. I think that if we avoid purchasing or return that which we are not happy with, the fabric companies might sit up and take notice. I just heard that consumer spending in the US was down last month. I guess I am going to iron my stash and start cutting that up.
