Thanks Rob (and to all - such great information!!). I finally feel like I have an understanding of length wise and cross grain as well. That after about 13 years!!
Love this quilt shop, so hopefully they don't mind accommodating the customers request for cut (and not torn) fabric. Not a lot of choices around me for fabric.
