I have bought tons of things from Connecting Threads in the past, but very little fabric. They have a 40% off book sale every so often and I love that you can "peek" inside a book on their site. I've also bought tools from them. Their site is very easy to navigate and it's easy to spend $50 for the free shipping.
:D :D :D
Their webstie says that the cotton used to make their fabric is grown in the USA. I don't know about North America. Maybe the cottom is processed and printed somewhere else but the cotton comes from USA
