    Default Connecting Threads Fabrics

    Is the fabric from Connecting Threads good quality? I just got their catalog for the first time and their fabrics look beautiful. Solid fabric for $4.96 a yard?? Is it thin, does it feel rough? If it is quality fabric then I'm going to have to make my first on-line fabric purchase!!!

    I like their fabric a lot. It's definitely not rough or thin. They have generous cuts and good service.

    I find any shop you occasionally are disappointed. I purchase online a great deal from USA or Australia , New Zealand and take a risk.i have only been sad about colour not fabric.

    Connecting Threads is the BOMB. You can't go wrong ordering from them.

    I love their fabric! Get myself into trouble every time I receive one of their beautiful catalogs. The pictures are even more gorgeous and tempting than when viewing online. I suggest you try a fat quarter bundle or some of their clearance fabric and see what you think.

    Right now CT is having a big sale. I bought 15 yards yesterday. Their fabrics are the best.

    Medium quality - not as bad as the Chinese stuff from Wal-mart, but not as well-designed, well-printed or well-finished as the good stuff from top name brands. Most of it is printed in Mexico.

    Love their fabrics, and I've ordered several fabrics from them. I wouldn't call them "medium quality" fabrics at all. I think they're very good quality. They prewash well, and sew up beautifully. Have never had a problem with them, and would definitely order them again.
