Connecting threads has a new line of batiks, I just noticed them on the site today, they are gorgeous!! Reminds me of Hoffman's 1895 watercolours. Some tone on tone batik prints too! I think I will have to place yet another order with them..yikes! And best of all, only 5.96 a yard! A great deal especially when a metre of batik is almost $20 with the tax in Canada.

I have been doing some MAJOR stash building. Looks like I better hit connecting threads as well. Poor DH, he will think I am trying to bankrupt us. Oh well, its off to the internet for me.

I pre ordered the Batik Paradise Deluxe Sampler. One fat quarter each of every batik print, 79 in all. The price is $1.49 per fat quarter. This is a super value.

I LOVE the new prices and fabrics! The site was updated Aug. 12...batiks for $5.96. I hope they make this a permanent offering, right now it is temporary.

They've added a large collection of solids and semi-solids for only $3.96 a yard! This is a permanent offering. I'm so glad to see this, I often wished they had some solids or blenders. Also, the price on prints was LOWERED $1/yd to just $4.96.

Added to their great customer service, I think this is one the best places to shop online.

Teacup I heartily agree with you. They told me about a month ago they were lowering prices. I love everything about them!

Have any of you shopped at Fabric Depot?? It is a HUGE fabric store in Portland, Oregon. They also have a web site and all their quilting fabric is 30% off right now. Check out the pre-cuts (fat quarters, etc.). I saw some batiks for $1.31 per fat quarter. If you are ever in the Portland, OR area, you must stop by the store. It's amazing. Lots of people on their way to the Sisters, Oregon quilt show stop there.
