    Default Ineed Fabric questions

    I just happened upon https://ineedfabric.com/ .

    I noted that thumbnails of major name brand swatches included the manufacture's name under the thumbnail picture. However, some thumbnails had no brand names listed. I had to read their web page decscription to find the manufacturer's name; which was Choice Fabrics.

    I googled Choice Fabrics and saw that Hancock as well as Walmart carry a line called Choice Fabrics.. So I'm suspicious of the quality of the Ineed Fabrics "Choice Fabrics" line.

    I do know there is a Choice Fabrics distributor in Springfield, TN.

    -->Has anyone purchased Choice Fabrics from Ineed Fabrics? If so, how would your rate the quality of the fabric?

    Thank you very much for your time and input.

    Another one to mark and watch closely. I would love to know the answer. I have not ordered from them as of yet and will wait now until I, like you have an answer.

    Walmart had a listing for Bosal in-R-foam by the bolt, it was a great price so I ordered it. It was sold by ineedfabric.com. Lo and behold, what they sent me was 2 yards. I contacted them and sent them a copy of the listing where it was listed as a Bolt. They kindly sent a return shipping label and refunded my money with no issue. I don’t know about the quality of the merchandise, but I was satisfied with their customer service.

    Some (nice) fabrics do not have any brand names on their selvages.

    I agree with you. I have found some good buys at Ben Franklin stores with unnamed fabric. But I was able to see and feel the fabric before I puchased it.

    Since I haven't had any experience with Ineed Fabric, I was hoping for some insight before I ordered.

    I would highly NOT recommend ineedfabric.com.

    The first item in my order was not a first quality. In fact, I question where it was made by the stated manufacturer. The selvages came shredded, and it was hard to even discern the name of the brand. The fabric was extremely stiff as if the print was painted on. After two washings the fabric was still stiff as a board. In my estimation it was a knockoff. I contacted ineedfabric about this issue and received zero feedback about it.

    The second item was a raven block. You could see a faint orange eye dot on the face of the fabric which was charcoal gray. If you held the fabric up to the light, you could see a faint outline of the raven from the back side of the fabric.

    So, all I can say is buyer beware.

    I just made a small purchase from them. I want to see the quality of the fabric before I purchase more. It doesn't sound good but i will wait and see.
