I got a lot of fabric from Connecting Threads awhile back. I did think it was rather thin compared to quilt shop fabric but I still liked it.....until I washed it. I've never washed fabric before quilting until I saw how important it was from someone on this board, so I washed it all last weekend. Well, the CT fabric was so far off from squared, it wasn't funny. There was a gap of about 3" between both sides, so I lost several inches on every single piece. The quilt shop fabric was right on, perfectly squared. I do plan to call them but I probably will not buy from CT again. Several inches on each fabric really adds up to a lot of lost money.
