I order from them. They are fast. UPS destroyed one of my packages and they made it right for me.
They also charge the actual shipping charge. They give you a charge and then if the actual charge is less they charge you the cheaper rate.

I order my batting and thread from them because even with shipping it's cheaper than Joanns and Hobby Lobby. I don't have any place else around here. They are great to work with and usually ship quickly and I like the hobbs 80/20. Since I quilt mostly for charity I try to find the best prices and theirs are really good.

I do like the Hobbs' fusible and didn't see it on here.
Perhaps as another mentioned, if it is mostly for longarmers, that could be the reason.......I usually get mine from Connecting Threads, especially when they are running one of the 30% off sales.

My Sis-in-law and I stopped in at their business this summer on the way to her family's place. Some experienced LA quilters had mentioned they take trips there several times a year to stock up because their prices are awesome. We're just getting started, so we didn't buy anything other than a few teaching videos.

Sounds like it's not going to be much different -poof wise- from W&N then, right?
Thicker is ok, I don't mind that.
I think I'm going to order some packages to try out. That price is incredible.
Thanks!

So may I ask you this - do you happen to have a link to a quilt you did with the Hobbs 80/20?
As I wrote upthread, I like the W&N, and I know I DON'T like the look of the Hobbs Poly.
I was wondering what it looked like - mostly concerned about the poof factor.
Thanks for you help.
And sorry for hijacking the thread. :mrgreen:

If you look at the yellow quilt (3rd pic), that's the kind of quilting I love on my quilts - not heirloom but dense with swirls and spirals and NO feathers. ;-)
How would that look with the 80/20?
Thanks for your help.
