I found them to be rather thin, and ravely this past year..not the quality they used to be! and several colors I bought bled for three washes!

I buy CT fabric all the time. I love the quilt kits most of all.

I find that it shrinks a LOT more than quilt shop level of fabrics. For example, I was working with a collection of solids. I decided to live dangerously and not pre-wash. I spritzed with water and pressed with a hot iron - you could see the fabric contract. A fat quarter was easily 2 inches smaller in each dimension after just the spritz and press. I'm a little scared to wash the small quilt I was making now. It also frays a lot more than either Kona or Moda bella solids. Significantly thinner than kona. The texture was fairly close to the Moda bella solids I had on hand (over a year old) but the CT is thinner, lights shows through more.

It's not horrible fabric, the price was attractive, the range of the pallete is nice, and I'll use it again, but I can't say that I am ready to foreswear all other fabrics from here on out.

I haven't bought the solid colors but I have purchased some of the prints. I was really pleasantly surprised. It isn't quite LQS quality but it is far superior to Wal-Mart or Joann's in MHO. Hope that helps!

In fact, I have been working on another order from them. I like to purchase the fabric that's on sale...most of those are between $3 and $4 a yard! I also love their thread! Guess I just plain ol' like Connecting Threads... :mrgreen:

I love all the fabric I have purchased from connecting threads.

I have used it for along time and find it satisfactory. I have never had a piece "bleed" color or found any flaws in it. Also, they have a very fine quarantee and helpful, courteous staff.

totally satisfied,
but i have never bought the solids or blenders..yet!

Talk about raveling...I just finished a top of mixed batiks and some Stonehenge . The Stonehenge is mostly on my ironing board, the floor, whatever I was wearing and all over the machine and it's table. A real mess. I am not real pleased with it. Have had no such trouble with C T fabric.

I received my order yesterday and they have Top quality material Love it and the price is great

My Aunt(88yrs old) buys from there all the time. I don't go on that site very ofter, but have heard very good things about it.
I just got an order from JoAnn's and I am very dissapointed with it. I am making a baby quilt for a friend's new grandbaby due in August and needed Winnie the Pooh fabric. I went on and ordered it. It is very thin and not very good quality. I have purchased from JoAnn's before and was happy with it. Live and learn, I guess.
