Connecting Threads
 

Any recommendations on their Quilter's Candy Basics? It's on sale for a great price, but the only time I ordered from CT the fabric they sent me was not good quality and I had to return it. I'd like to avoid making the same mistake twice! Thanks. :-)

The same thing happened with my first order. I have since ordered clearance fabrics which were fine. To me, they are still risky on quality.

It's been a couple of years since I ordered any fabric from them. Just spools & spools of their thread - LOVE it! I do like their batiks, but haven't tried the fabric recently. I suppose I should. I thought the earlier fabric was too coarse & I didn't like the printing. It rather sat on top of the fabric instead of penetrating the fibers & becoming one with it! It looks like they have beefed up the thread count to a finer thread with more threads per inch. I'll be anxious to see others opinions of the fabric now.

I know I wasn't all that impressed when I first ordered, the fabric was dull and muddy. The last fabric collections I have ordered have been just fine.

I have bought lots of fabric from Connecting Threads recently and have been very pleased with the quality. I just bought 2 kits from there and the fabric is gorgeous! And you sure can't beat the price! For those of us in Canada the shipping is very reasonable - only $7.99, which is so much less than most places. It is my favorite place to order online.

I have never had a problem with CT fabrics everything I have ordered
has always felt so good to touch that I got to where I wouldn't cut, instead
I would just run my hand over it because is was so soft and felt luxurious
to me.

I love their fabrics, thread, batting.....just about anything they have! Their prices are great and customer service is above and beyond the norm. I do love the new collections, great colors.

I bought some Candy basics back in the summer and am very pleased with it. It has a nice feel and very bright colors. I am using it to make a cupcake quilt for my youngest DD.

The fabric I've ordered looks even better in person that it did online. I've been pleased with everything I've ordered from them.

Their fabric fades fast, doesn't feel nearly as nice as LQS brand names and the thread is LINTY , bumpy and nubby. Not my favorite at all. You get what you pay for, IMO.
