Connecting Threads Batiks
#1
I have ordered connecting fabrics before and they are good quality, but yesterday I bought a bunch of their Batik samplers. Strips, 10 in squares ect...The are on sale 50 % off. has anyone tried their batiks yet? They look nice and deep in color. That is only thing I havent liked about connecting threads fabrics. They are getting better about thier colors they seem to be getting deeper in color if that makes sense. Anyway if anyone has tried these new batiks I would love to hear what you think. I got quite a bit for about 50.00 with the free shipping.

I haven't used them yet but bought a stack last month, I'm VERY pleased with the quality and color. I think it was "springtime" or something in the light variety and it has very good color concentration.

On Cyber Monday, I treated myself to about $200 worth of stacks from all the clearence collections they were offering. I too am pleased with the quality of their fabrics and I've been sewing with their threads for about 2 years now and love it too. Watch for the thread collections to go on sale, then stock up....with all the colors they offer, it is easy to match thread to fabric

I guess I'm in the minority here. I got the jelly roll strips, think it was Spring. The colors were washed out and they were flimsy. They didn't feel like traditional batiks to me--I like mine very stiff and with more vivid colors. 5 out of the roll had very nice colors, but the others didn't. Sorry-I hope you like yours better than I did.
