The cutters are notorious for short cutting at Joanns My batting was 4" too short even though I had asked for an extra 4 " over what I needed .Everytime I buy fabric I remeasure when I get home and 9 out of ten times it is about 2 to 4 inches short if I but 4 or 5 yards it is even shorter. Then they get offended if you ask them to remeasure after cutting. Going to the manager doesn't help. LOL, she was one of the ones who shorted me.
