Look but mainly feel the fabric it tells you a great deal.
I was in Abakhan a week ago, and was amazed at the price of their Christmas fabric, sold by weight. It was double the price of the regular craft fabric. the craft fabric is very hit and miss. The assistant could not tell me why it was so much more expensive. A lot of their fabric is second s, regarding printing, and what I saw last week was not quilting fabric quality. have become very disillusioned with Abakhan.
