Well said! I bought a small piece at Hobby Lobby because it was a color I needed for a small quilt. When I got home and started to use it, the piece felt thin and stiff. It was RJR, but when I went back one day, I checked the bolt and it said RJR (made for Hobby Lobby) which told me it was a second or cheaper made bolt. I have seen this also on the bolts at Walmart. Just be careful when shopping. Hobby Lobby does have some great fabric, but it is in the quilting section!
