This is sort of off topic for this thread but thought I would ask anyway. I have never purchased fabric from CT but read so much about the company on this forum. Can someone give me an idea of the fabric quality. Can you compare to Hoffman, RJR, Kaufman or would it be more like P&B, Free Spirit? To me, these brands have a different "hand". How would you rate it. Would like to order from CT.

Yeah, I thought so far that Thousands of Bolts sale haven't been that great, either!! I keep an eye on CT & thousands. Last yr GREAT buys at Bolts!..Checked at Wally's today, too & they didn't have ANY seasonal prints. Lady said they aren't gonna carry much so they don't have to mark it down after the holiday...bummer at all of them so far!!

Swore I wouldn't order any more fabric but between this thread as a reminder and CT's e-mails I've been sorely tempted!! But I resisted. I resisted right up until I hit that Place Order button an hour ago. Got free shipping, too. I have no willpower. I don't care. I'm going to have fun with all my new fabs AND the box of books I ordered from Amazon!!!! I am so bad.

I am surprised you didnt get the email. I got one mid last week and then another this morning about cyber Monday. The thread is just a clearance item, not a sale, so no email there

With fat quarters half off, this would be a good time to give them a try. Their prices are great, but I find with a coupon fabric.com often beats them, and with brand names (though I've seen ct fabrics on that site. I always thought they.were exclusive so that surprised me.)

I tried...But CT just kept calling me back...I placed my order last night close to midnight...got plenty of bargains...I bought some of the clearance fabs for donation quilts. Ordered a couple of packs of thread...couldn't resist.

I wasn't going to order BUT with mention of the neutral set of threads on sale I went and looked again. Found some fabrics to add to my overwhelming stash ... Managed to spend $59+ change. Oh well, free shipping is a good thing, LOL.
