| Has anyone ordered the batiks from Connecting Threads? If so, how do they compare with the Batiks we are used to buying? The few fabrics I have bought from CT seem to have a rougher texture than I like and wondered if the batiks were the same. Anyone have any experience with them? |

| Yes, Marsha. I found a black batik on sale I wanted and when it came, it was about half the thickness of what I buy here. No wonder it was so cheap. I used it as a background for flags and it worked fine but their batiks are terribly thin and flimsy. I have other fabrics from them that are good, though. I just won't order batiks from them. |

| Thank you - I value your opinion. I suspected it was not the same quality. I have not bought much fabric from them. I did buy a collection of FQ's - hand dyes - last year that I did like. I will stay away from the batiks. |
