    Good pricing but I haven't purchased from them so I don't know what their customer service is like.

    Just looked at the site. Minimum order is a bolt of 15 yards.

    I looked too-how do you order 15 yards of a 4-piece FQ bundle? Their prices are really good for brand named fabrics, but what quilter would order 15 yards of the same fabric??? I think it is mainly for quilt shops to order for their stock-I wouldn't mind ordering a TOTAL of 15 yards of DIFFERENT fabrics, but I think I'll pass on this one. Too bad- they do have great prices!

    The only way I would order 15 yards is to find something I would use for backing a couple of times. They do have some good prices.

    I usually wait until I have a 40 or 50% off coupon for Joann's (plus use my additional 10% off card from joining Quilters Club of America) and buy a bolt of backing. I recently did that and purchased a bolt of beatiful light blue paisley 108" wide which was $9.99 per yard regularly and got it about $4.00/yard. I make large bed quilts and will certainly use it. I also have done the same for 44-45" neutral tone on tone or neutrals for backings. You can use the coupons for one cut only, but they consider the whole bolt as one cut.
