The problem is most of JoAnne employees are not sewers, let alone quilters. To them one black solid is no different from another. This would explain why the OP and many others who have posted the same here felt the fabric is different weight/quality from Kaufman Kona.
I certainly hope you let the Kaufman people know about this! I'm sure they would be very grateful for the information, if only the store number and events as they happened.
