Title: Anybody shopped at Carolina Calicoes?
Post by: Sev on January 03, 2013, 12:02:38 AM
Hello wonderful people!

I stumbled across this site, http://www.carolinacalicoes.com/ recently, and was absolutely THRILLED to see that not only did they carry ACTUAL woven cotton damask (not just the damask-styled prints like most places), they also have some other great fabrics, all at pretty fantastic prices! Unfortunately, I've lost track of how I found them, and haven't managed to find much mention of them around the 'net, so I wanted to check here. It seems they do vend at Pennsic, or have in the past, and despite a couple mentions of smallish and quickly-resolved issues that may have been honest mistakes... there's nothing bad being said about them that I can find. But then, there's not much discussion of them at all!

If anyone here has dealt with them or knows anything about them, please do post here, because they have the potential to be a FANTASTIC resource!

Thanks!

  Thanks I see at least 2 promising swatches I will be calling on tonight.  I need about 10 yards, so I hope they have it!
