    Default I found Vera Bradley fabrics sold by the yard...

    I just came across this site that sells Vera Bradley fabrics by the yard. But then I noticed it is in China. If it were in the USA I'd have ordered.

    I have purchased from them. Fabric is beautiful. I do try to buy American but I think this is now made in China. First time I ordered it took a month to ship. My second order only took about a week.

    Everything is made in China anyway so might as well buy direct.

    Is this authentic? I was just talking about Vera Bradley yardage with my friend over the weekend. Is there anyway to know that it is authentic?

    Unfortunately, I do believe most if not all fabric is "made" in China these days.....how about the batiks...these are done somewhere in the mideast or some third world island somewhere are they not??????

    Btiks are typically made in Indonesia.

    Some q fabric is produced in Korea....better quality.

    With all of the gorgeous quilting fabric in our local quilt shops WHY would anyone want to buy Vera Bradley fabric? Where is our "originality" ?
