Has anyone ordered this fabric line from Connecting Threads yet? i LOVE it but want to know if the colors are true colors as the web site shows?? I've never ordered from them before so don't know how the fabrics feel and look compared to the website pictures!

I'm actually using some material from there for a quilt now. I love it! I love their colors and the fabric. It does shrink some, but not as bad as others I have seen. If you like the line of fabric, I would say order it.
I saw several things in their catalog yesterday that I want..hehe

Pretty collection! I love Connecting Threads. You could always buy a $4.99 charm pack which would have all the fabrics from that collection. Computer monitors and displays are often not calibrated by their owners, so colors may appear off. A charm pack would solve your concerns.

I just saw it yesterday online, too. I love the red/white combo and the red with light red (?) maybe mixed but would take them all!! LOL I haven't seen them in person so I'm afraid I'm not much help but the pix online look great.

I have been with this co for many years, they have wonderful fabrics and kits and their prices are great, I highly recomend them. Have fun!!! They also have a quilt they are starting this month as a bom and about 150 people so far have joined, they will do it on line.
