*** I am from the South where most of the cotton mills use to be.
*** I even worked for the manufacturer of the textile machinery for the mills.

*** The mills and my plant were closed out by companies shipping/buying
to/from other countries (China, Mexico, Sri Lanka, etc.) that usually pay 10 cents
an hour and usually make inferior products with no Quality Control.

*** Now most of the mills are gone and we are forced to buy from other
countires (we have no other choice).
***
*** The country you are in is one of the few that possibly make a good product.
***
*** Some times the fabric has alien fibers in them and you do not know how they
will work in our patterns.
***
*** Also they are made in factories that have no Pest control, you may be buying
fabric with BUGS, RODENT droppings & diseases, etc. that can potentially harm you.

***

*** Be prepared to WASH any fabrics that you buy overseas.
