No I have noticed the same thing as well, some of the stone hill collection is very nice and some of the cheaper lines are nice as well, all depends on what you are using it for and which quality you like but I have used some of the %5.99 a ayrd stuff with even better results then the current Moda.

I went to Joann's and found better quality for about 7.99 a yarn and used by 50% off coupons.
There were, however, fabrics at Joann's now that are $12.99 per yard. I could not believe my eyes. The clerk said that they are really stuggling as they mark prices up.
I've also seen some cottons at LQS for $16.50 but it is imported.
I was very pleasantly surprised at Joann's quality. Never thought I would say that. They still have the really cheap stuff - but there is great quality now too.
Am I crazy or has anyone else noticed this???
