I order from Connecting Threads, Keepsake Quilting and Hancock's of Paducah and I have always been very happy with the fabrics I have bought from them. I have ordered a lot of the matched up Medley's from keepsake Quilting and they have always been just perfect for my projects. I am working on the Serenity Garden kit from Keepsake Quilting now and the fabric is so beautiful.

I usually buy from a line of fabric if I shop online so I know all the fabric will match. One bad thing about that is that a lot of the times they only have 2 or 3 bolts left of the fabric line, so I have to look around at different online stores to find more of the fabric. But I find lots more selection online and they seem to have the latest fabric before any LQS around here gets it. I seldom buy one piece of fabric unless I know for sure what it is, like what fabric line it's from. I've been disappointed in the fabric when I buy without knowing the exact fabric before hand. Usually it doesn't look like the picture quite enough.

I have purchased quite a bit (translate: ALOT) of fabric online. One of my favorites is Thousands of Bolts. Once you pick a fabric, you can match up any color in that fabric by clicking on the color. All the matching fabrics will pop up. I have never been disappointed. They are also very accommodating when I call with a question. They called me today & told me a fabric I was looking for was back in stock. Fabric.com, Connecting thread, & keepsake quilting are also helpful. Good luck.

I have ordered from most of the sites mentioned above and other than some slight color variations that still worked together have been thrilled with them. As long as you stick with the major brands and major companies you shouldnt have much trouble.

I have ordered from Fabric.com also and I've always been pleased with the fabric, especially the coordinates, batiks and they have a great broadcloth and the prices are very reasonable. I've also ordered from Thousands of bolts. All of their pictures of fabric are not clear, so I don't order those particular fabrics but the fabric that I've ordered from the clear pictures have always been representive. I love being able to match my fabrics and look at them on the wall to actually see how they match.
