Rose, I agree with you. I worked the fabric department at our Wal Mart and had one of our LQS owners come in and buy fabric by the bolt to mark up and sell in her store. I have been thrilled at the quality of the fabric at Connecting Threads. And, I have purchased high quality fabric at Wal Mart. You must check your fabric wherever you buy it.
