5" charm packs
 
I am considering putting an order to Connecting Threads and am wondering if anyone has bought them. Are they a true 5 inches? I have read that some are short so I would like your opinions before I place an order. Thanks for your help.

I have several packages and love ! them.
So far I had them all exactly 5 inches,but they are all from Moda , I can't say anything about others.

My experience with Charm Packs (Moda), not true to size.

I have not ordered their charm packs, but I have found that CT answers email questions promptly, and if something is wrong with your order they are quick to fix it. Perhaps you could email them about the accuracy of the charm squares?

Many Charm Squares are cut by the manufacturer and not store. I would say the same as Duncan, to contact the store. I have recently purchased Tonga Treats 6-pack and if they are short, I will contact Timeless Treasures directly even though I purchased them from Hancock of Paducah.

So far any I have purchased from CT have been fine. I really like the fact that they don't charge for cutting, so charms are the same price per yard as a normal cut.

I love connecting threads..I have ordered several five inch charm packs and all was the same size. Never once have I had a problem with an order. 10 inch are just as nice to sew with..

I have ordered them and for the most part the are true or supper close to it. Most of the problems I have had from them is when there is a crease in the fabric it gives you a slightly larger and off block. But that is easyish to fix.

I ordered 5 or 6 charm packs of some batiks and had no problem with them.

I have never had any problems with their charm packs and I have ordered a lot of them.
