    1000's Of Bolts has great brands, great customer service and right now, great sales... I also have received a phone call from customer service (don't know how they have the time) to inform me the posted online price had been reduced, and I would be receiving either a credit on my Cr Card or a store credit...my choice. WOW talk bout service.!! :)

    Thanks in advance. :-)
    As a fellow Aussie I have so far only bought from Hancocks of Paducah. If you sign up with them they have specials from time to time including free shipping if you spend over $75 US with them, free shipping is usually every 3 months or so.(not that hard to do lol) All the fabric I have received has been great quality and the batting is sooooo much cheaper than here in Australia. If you buy from Thousands of Bolts let us know how you get on, all us international quilters need all the help we can get considering the prices here.

    I just bought from www.jandofabrics.com. This was the first time I had ordered fabric online. Prices were good and low shipping costs. I should be receiving my fabric anytime. I will post once I get it to see the fabric.

    I personally will neerpurchase fabric from Thousands of Bolts again. Received very poor quality fabric, and have had others tell me they only purchase from "known" manufacturers from this site.

    Others that are GREAT in my mind, in addition to Hancocks of Paducah, are:
