    Default Terry Cloth

    Where is a good source for QUALITY terry cloth fabric?

    Would prefer a source where you can purchase it by the bolt.

    Try Fabric Depot http://www.fabricdepot.com/index.php...=terry%20cloth

    They will sell almost anything by the bolt if you ask, and give you a 40% discount on it.

    Yes there are many places where it is sold but not necessarily good quality. I was reading reports from JoAnn Fabrics and there's appears to not be good quality.

    Has anyone purchased some Terry Cloth which you found to be of good quality?

    I agree on the JoAnn fabrics terry cloth. I made some real cute bibs and the first time my daughter washed them they came out looking like very wrinkled rags. Have never tried terry since then cause I was so disappointed. But I have made bibs from hand towels and they worked fine. So - somewhere you should be able to find good quality terry.
    When you find it, let us know.

    I will. I just ordered some from fabric.com and will see how those are. If not to my liking I will keep looking.

    At least with fabric.com it can be sent back postage paid if you don't like it.
