At $17.50 a yard, it seems like they could make a softer fabric like Moda, Timeless Treasures or any of the other name brands out there that cost at least 25% less.

I do appreciate all the responses and suggestions. Thank you very much.
I think the difference is that those other companies are making large quantities of fabrics and can use different methods of printing than small batch companies can. I don't believe its the fabric. It's the printing process that makes the difference.
