    I would like to know how the quality of fabric is compared to Bali Batiks? Anyone have an opinion?

    I've always been very satisfied with the fabric other than trying to match something with the colors in their catalog - print or on line. But the fabrics are great and their kits are very nice.

    I saw them from email too, and even tho I had put myself on a 'no buy diet' I succumbed to temptation when I looked at the clearance fabrics.

    Ordered a couple of the clearance batiks and some of the other fabrics, enough to get free shipping. Today I went back and several of the fabrics that I ordered aren't available anymore, good thing I got them just in time! whew. I ordered 11 fabrics, 13 1/2 yds for $59.76, bringing it to $4.43yd. such a deal.

    Now , back to NO buy diet.

    I have mozilla firefox and did not get that 'not secure' notice.

    I have ordered from them quite often with no problems.

    If you are debating any of the clearance items, they may be not available any longer. I placed an order yesterday and today 4 of the fabrics are gone.

    I am very pleased with CT fabric quality. I quit buying Hoffman batiks. Many of the colors run. Not worth my time and cost to rewash several times before using.

    Firefox will alert you about every ordering site the first time you open that site. Once you open it, it won't alert you again. No ordering is completely secure online, catalog or phone.
