Joann's will let you return fabric as long as it is not washed or cut.

Thanks for sharing all this info with us! I had no clue about Spring products! I have bought fabric from CT also, and no complaints from me! They are great!

I too have great luck shopping Fabric.com - and if I am looking for a particular line of fabrics it is so easy. And customer service can't be beat.

Could be. I've noticed that Moda is not what it used to be even though the price is astronomical. froggyintexas

Has the quality changed over the years?

I disagree. I find CT fabrics comparable to my LQS. To each their own!!

TAKE IT BACK!!!! Even if you have cut and sewn it......then write to the company that made the fabric and ask for a refund.

Good luck!

I buy a lot of fabric from Connecting Thread and am very happy with it. At least their own lines are good. I have gotten some other fabric that they had on clearance and it was very stiff. I bought some fabric from JoAnns last week to make a dress for my granddaughter. Luckily I prewash my fabric because the fabric was a grey with a mauve print and after washing the mauve print was completely washed away. Not happy about that at all.

When I'm getting ready to invest (like 15 yards of a fabric for a project) I order a FQ of the selection of fabrics I'm considering from CT. That way I can "feel" them and see them. Then I order. I can always use FQ for a stash builder.

What an excellent idea Carrie. Thanks for posting it.
