The suggestion to purchase a color card is right on point. I found that what looks great on the computer screen is not always the right color when it arrives. With the color card (which is actual swatches of fabrics) I get the matching correct. Moda Bella has an extra smooth look and is very pretty but I have had problems with fraying. Moda did answer me that the thread count is high and that sometimes this causes fraying. I have remained loyal to the Kona brand since it never seems to give me any problems.
