    That was probably me. I'm a HUGE fan. I love using black fabrics and I couldn't believe the difference of all the other blacks next to the Michael Miller Jet Black. They all looked dull, brownish, or charcoal-ish next the MM

    It's fabulous. Try ordering a half yard next time you do a Hancock's order to see:

    KONA black...the only black as far as i'm concerned. it is pure, non-fading, no shadow-y- areas...good hand and you can find Kona solids at very good prices.

    Keepsake sells an Amish black that is great. I'm not sure who makes it, but it is extremely dark. www.keepsakequilting.com.

    Michael Miller Jet Black is what I just received from Hancock's of Paducah...they're right, it's much blacker than anything other black I have.
