You've got to have a pretty sharp eye when looking for fabric but you just can't beat his prices.

I've order from Connecting Thread several times and have really been happy with everything. Like their "cuts" as they are actually what they say and sometimes a little more. They are very quick as the order is usually here in 4 days. AND how many times have you ordered less than $50 worth of fabric, etc. and missed out on the free shipping? Me, NEVER, smile. Way to go "CT", thanks.

Sorry, this is a sore point for me. If a person wants to recycle clothing into crafting of any sort, I have no problem with that... IF they are using clothing from their own household. If you can afford new cloth, don't use the wool suit that might have helped a poor person get a job, or keep them from being quite as cold...
(OK off my soapbox... sorry for the rant)

Don't feel bad about buying used clothing for cutting up. The poor do not usually lack clothing. At least not in Poland. And in the states? When the floods happened in New Orleans they had to tell people to quit giving clothes and give other very needed items like water and generators.

It is on Sunshine - near St Johns Hospital, but not of Glenstone. Fabric Depot is on Glenstone.
Is this the store in the strip mall on Sunshine and Glenstone? My daughters live in Spfd and I'll be there next month.

(sorry about my little rant) BUT...you can still find awesome fabric at decent prices at places like Thousands of Bolts! Hope they can hold their prices for a while.
