    I ordered another sampler set of the batik fabric from CT. It should be here in a couple of days. It is so nice to have all the different colors for appliquéd and paper piecing projects. The batiks are very nice.

    I disagree. I think it is much better than Joans. and their batiks are wonderful and only 5.95 a yard

    So those of use that love CT ... we just love them, no changing our minds.

    Those that don't ... no changing their minds either.

    that is why there is chocolate and vanilla ... AND strawberry and sherbet and ....

    I have been using CT and find it is very good quality, and the price, many around $5.00, competes exceptionally well as LQS fabric which is now twice the price , though not twice the quality. For those of us looking for Quality as well as value, CT is your best bet.
    As to raveling, I find that it does not favor and particular kind of fabric. If it is going to ravel, it will ravel, no matter, what the price.
    I appreciate hearing all the input about this. Sue

    I just ordered the HOBBs batting when it was 30% off...

    so far, have only used the fusible for a wall hanging....
    and it was really great......

    I would definitely order again when this is gone.

    I'm very anxious to get this batting to try. Fabricville has the warm and natural for 22.00 a meter and i'm NOT paying that kind of money for something u can't even see, lol
