Did you buy homespun? I know Hobby Lobby has a lot of that and it really ravels a lot. I had a problem with some I bought at a quilt shop and it was Moda. It happens sometimes with any fabric line I suspect. I have never had a problem with Hobby Lobby fabric.

Your right I should look at the manufacturer next time I guess I didn't think about that. That way I don't run into the same problem again. I would hate to stop buying from them because of one bad fabric.

I've gotten fabric from stores and kept the selvage edge so I knew what I had. Went back couple times for more and frayed when first yardage didn't. I got it on sale the second time and it was just a different lot I guess.
