I have bought several yards of the Waverly fabric and I personally think it's lovely. I bought a pink with white polka dots and a blue polka dot also. Our local store has lovely fabrics and I have had no problem with them at all. I just cut up 2 yards of the solid white to use in a quilt and it didn't ravel anymore than any of the quilt shop fabrics. I have washed it also and it turns out great, I used a black Waverly for a quilt.
