    Love Whittles Fabric, they did not have my selection one time and worked with me to get something of similar colors and I actually like the one they chose than what I had originally ordered. My order always come wrapped and really fast. I've ordered from them lately and love the fabric texture.

    Ordered from both Whittles and Connecting Threads. Both are very service oriented. Quick shipments and one even included an extra yard of fabric because the one fabric I ordered was an inch short. I always over order anyway so that was a plus. Both have excellent quality fabric. I highly recommend both places.

    I've never heard of whittled, will have to check it out. But, I order from connecting threads all the time, great fabrics and service. Never been disappointed with fabric from Connecting Threads and have been ordering for years from them. Spend $50.00 and shipping is free.
    Have a Blessed day

    Love both sites. I have been ordering on line for years. Everything has been fine.
    This year I needed just one more fabric for my "FLORAL VIGNETTES" quilt and I put in a search and got it from a shop in Nevada. ( I have traveled through Nevada and did not see a house let alone a quilt shop.) It was a wonderful shop and so kind to ship the fabric quickly.

    I have purchased from both Connecting threads and whittles.
    I like both places and have had great customer service. If I cannot find what I'm looking for in one I will go to the other.
