Just found out if is out of stock!
Keepsake Calicos are not in the Premium Section of JAF. They are JAF's own line. In the JAF Superstores by me, they have a whole 4-level rack dedicated just to Keepsake Calico fabrics. I have had mixed results with the fabrics. They tend to be a looser weave than what I find at LQS and are a bit more prone to fraying, but I'm perfectly happy to use the on family quilts. They are lovely fabrics that hold up well in the wash. They are not quite as luxurious feeling after they've been through the first wash. It's amazing what the right chemicals can do to improve the look of a fabric. But I made many happy little quilts with them before I discovered the joys of LQS fabrics. I'm sure they will make a lovely lap quilt for some lucky recipient!
