I got the following e-mail this morning from: acounterpane.com




All Hoffman of California Batiks - 20% off!
Moda Fabrics On Sale! $5.50 per yard to $8.95 Per Yard (excluding pre-cuts and wides)
RJR Fabrics Reduced just for this SALE - $5.22 Per yard to $8.99 Per yard.

Really Big SALE department - Everything $5.59 or Less

The e-mail looks great but I've never heard of them and was wondering if anyone else has ever purchased here.

Thanks

Interesting to know how they got the email addresses.

Someone just posted that it was probably from the ShopHop, which certainly makes sense. There is already talk about their "fantastic" customer service, so I'm really anxious to hear about fabric quality. Hope someone keeps us up to date!

I don't know, but the name brand fabric prices surely sound good don't they?

I got one as well, don't remember visiting their shop on the hop but might have.

amma 08-04-2011 09:45 AM

I have signed up for newsletters when bunny searching... forgot all about them til the emails started showing up LOL

I pretty much trust those in the hops, but I do use either a credit card or paypal to be on the safe side :D:D:D

I'm also curious but still plan on a small purchase just to check the quality. Those prices are FANTASTIC!

I just went back and looked at the email again. It is from the fabshophop.

A Counterpane has been around for many years. Reputable. Reliable.

I have ordered fabric from there several times. I even ordered a pattern and did not want to use the colors suggested, so the owner worked with me and sent emails of fabrics in the color families I wanted and figured the yardage with the additional border that I added and mailed all of it to me. Very pleased with their service and first rate batiks.

Quiltinvaca 08-04-2011 04:43 PM

Glad to hear -- thanks so much!

jansquiltn 08-05-2011 02:55 AM

oh no not another place to add to help add to my addiction

Miss Ruthie 08-05-2011 03:16 AM

I have bought from them twice in the past year and was very pleased with them. I am looking at what they have for sale now.

niizh 08-05-2011 03:37 AM

Do you think prices are better than Fabric.com. Or is this another source. Different shop, different fabrics.

luana 08-05-2011 04:27 AM

Are their prices for .5 yard?

callie 08-05-2011 05:45 AM

thanks for sharing.

Momma_K 08-05-2011 06:02 AM

I got the same e-mail also. Looked it over and the prices are great! It never occured to me about where it came from...thanks for bringing this up, always pays to be safe!!

If you look closely it starts out at say.. $6.95 per yard. BUT in the box, the .5 is to give you the option of 1/2 a yard at half that price. I hope I worded that right! :lol: :mrgreen: :D

LindaM49 08-05-2011 06:09 AM

I just checked it out too. WOW! I could spend all of money there real quick. Thanks for posting the website...I already have it saved in my favorites.

I've decided to do mostly wallhangings to start...besides this biscuit quilt that I am ready to top stitch the edges and then do the seam snipping. Anyway...I saw a picture of a quilt in a book and fell in love with the wide border fabric that was used. I saw something similar at JoAnn's but didn't buy it. Well...this site has a LOT of similar fabric so I'm pretty sure I will be placing an order soon.

I can't say this enough...I just love this board and how great everyone is at sharing so much information.

Interesting since I got one too and assumed it was for one of the newsletters I requested while shop hopping. BTW I won a 10 gift certif in June, and a 20 in April. (Not from the site being discussed tho.) :thumbup:

Landers 08-05-2011 06:50 AM

No. Sorry.

Charming 08-05-2011 07:00 AM

I just went to the website and this is what i found in their shipping information:

Shipping to APO and/or FPO is FREE. It's just one way we support our troops!


Isn't that amazing :)

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

BettyGee 08-05-2011 07:17 AM

Yes, very good company. I purchase from them and have always been very pleased.

Tinabug 08-05-2011 07:17 AM

They have a very sound, secure site. I would order from them.

MimiLinda 08-05-2011 07:24 AM

Thanks for sharing this info. I'm sure I will try it out. :D

aggie 08-05-2011 07:29 AM

Ordered from them several times. Very reliable.

nunnyJo 08-05-2011 07:32 AM

Jan, I've been on shophop and I haven't received anything from this site. They can get your info from any site that's not sucure or from just following your search histories. If they see your go to certain compitition they can get you email information from there.

plainpat 08-06-2011 01:22 AM

Haven't shopped there.Just wanted to say it's very smart to ask about any unknown site.We all need to be alert as to where we spend our money these days.Now to check it out! :)
