Okay - so I get a little excited at times! :mrgreen: Today, I got my first order from Connecting Threads! I wouldn't have known about this place had I not read it on this forum! Their order came sooner than expected and the fabric is awesome! :lol: The colors are MUCH prettier than in pictures! I can't wait to start sewing --- BUT we're leaving for a week to go camping with friends! :roll: DRAT!

Now - here's another side note: I've been to their store in Vancouver!!! It was before I started quilting ---I was into painting and I was shopping at The Artist's Club.....I had no idea they were the same!!! Now I can't wait to go back -- which will be the 1st of August when we go up to visit our kids!

Here's what I've ordered:

Amma -- when you read the packing slip, it doesn't give the street address!!!! I just noticed! When you get up there, try to find it in the phone book. If they're in the same store, it doesn't look like a store. The street winds around and it's in more of an office building......I remember it being on the left of the street. Good luck, have fun and let me know if you find them!

Thank you, I looked their address up and know the general location. I will let you know...their website invites quilters to drop by their corp office, too!

I also got some 505 spray and a new quilt book, Elm Creek Quilts!

When you ladies go and visit in person, please tell them we would love it if they changed their minds and shipped overseas too.
