I am always looking for quality fabric at good prices. I was lucky to find some that I can use for backgrounds or quilt backs at an awesome price in the clearance bin which makes this an absolutely wonderful experience! Thanks!
Fast service in cutting but their shipping partner is slow. When I contacted CT got notice that said delivery is in 8-12 days. DHL had item and was not sending to USPS for delivery very fast. CT needs to find a different shipping partner. There are times when you want item fast and this is slow. Ordered on 17th and it was shipped a day or two later and still DHL doesn't show that it's moving thru the system
After I got my quilt top assembled, I realized the backing fabric I had planned to use just wouldn't work. To find a blue - online especially - has been difficult for me, but I found one, ordered it and crossed my fingers. What I ordered turned out to be the perfect match and a beautiful quality fabric. It arrived in approximately a week...I'll order again!
Kits did not have the required amount of fabric. There was no explanation why the kits were short on fabric. I ordered 2 kits so I could make the quilt larger. Nine fabrics were required, only six were sent in both kits. I paid full price for both kits, so I was disappointed.
I buy a lot of fabrics from CT for my WoW Pillowcases so that I have the perfect colors available when making them! I also make quilts and find the perfect colors or prints from CT to finish them! With the gas prices, I find CT saves me the driving and offers many quality choices that are mailed directly to me. I love their thread and use it on my sewing machine for all my sewing projects.
Ordered my fabric on July 24th. On July 29th received email saying it was shipped. But only the shipping label was created. It took them 8 days to get it to the post office. Today it has been 11 days sine I ordered and I still haven't received it. I will not buy from them again.
I ordered from Connecting Threads for the first time since the 00's. I needed some cheaper blues for a scrappy quilt. Their griege goods used to be quite inferior- scratchy, stiff, didn't wash as well. Imagine my happy suprise upon opening the packaging- the materials they sent me now were just as lovely as the highest quality that I have purchased at my local quilt shop. Very impressed.
Their fabric is not worth the wait when they charge your credit card the day it ships and they continue sending it via postal service that takes two weeks to get from Georgia to Alabama. And they send you an email that they will respond to your concerns - but never get back to you. I am still waiting for second order. First went to wrong address because their shipping label was so faded!
I've ordered from them several times (thread) and have received my orders in a timely manner. Their thread is what I pretty much solely use now - great quality for the price. They have good sales on fabric too and I've not had a problem with anything I've sewn with it. I'll keep ordering from them.
Purchased Entwined quilt kit. Frayed. I thought it was the Americana Collection that frayed. Later I purchased several pieces of yardage from another collection. Those pieces frayed. I truly hope CT resolves the issue. Their color, print, and theme choices are beautiful. It is disheartening to work meticulously on a quilt to see it unravel.
