Thanks in advance,
ETA: I see some of them are made in China, some in South Korea, and some don't say at all. Does anyone know what difference these locations might mean to the quality?
Fabric made in China or S Korea does NOT mean it is of inferior quality - it ALL depends on the greige good quality, the manuf, the print runs and the finishing
Did you know that all MODA fabrics are made in S Korea ?? and so are other manuf.
There are VERY FEW fabrics still made in the US - the days of American textiles are long gone, unfortunately and will probably never return
Even the Connecting Threads fabrics "advertised" are made only with US GROWN Cotton - but they are manuf and printed overseas.
