I love moda marbles. They're the perfect blender, but I noticed the last few times I bought them that the they seemed thin and they ravelled a lot.

I use Moda Crackle more often than Moda Marbles. Crackle has a much nicer feel to it - the Marbles is very thin. I also recently bought some Stonehenge. It's gorgeous fabric.

Northcott? I think that's who it is.

I like the Marbles, and I also really like the Fusions.

Northcott. I love Stonehenge and it works much better with batiks than a lot of other regular cotton blenders.

I used to use a lot of Moda Marbles, but now the fabric seems thinner than I like and they just don't look/act the same. Patrick Lose (the designer of Moda Marbles) is now designing marbles for Timeless Treasures. Has anyone tried those (Marble Mania)? I'm wondering how they compare to the Modas.

I think the Timeless Treasures marbles are a little thicker than the Moda. I'm pretty sure that was what came in the Quilts for Kids kits I had. Very nice.

Couldn't have said it better :thumbup:
