I can't stand digital prints, mostly because they snag on my needle and I end up with little white streaks. Same if I try to pick out a seam. Can't quilt them without the little pulls. Yes, everyone will tell me to change my needle, but it still happens then. I feel like we are in for a quilting doomsday if these don't hold their colors through many washings as screen printed fabrics do. I'm afraid of the quilts fading quicker than screen prints would.

I've gotten pretty good at spotting digital prints when offered online. I am avoiding them now, but what if all quilting fabric is printed digitally in the future? Good thing I began hoarding fabric before the digital prints came along! LOL. I could easily quilt til the end of my life with what I have stashed now.
