    Question Anybody ever buy fabric from www.periodfabric.com?

    Greetings all,
    was perusing the threads on another forum and came across a posting on the above site as a place to get inexpensive kilts & associated goods. while looking thru thier catalog i came across this page showing "tartans & flag bunting". They show a couple of tartans there that look good but at only $8/yard... makes me kinda dubious of the quality.

    Has anybody ever shopped there and have any reviews???

    Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Looks like this website is owned by Hamiliton Dry Goods and they have been talked about on the board here many times before mostly for their kilt socks. I didn't realize they had a site for cloth though too. Prices look very reasonable. The comments I have seen have been positive. Might try doing a thread search for Hamilton Dry Goods.
    I'm not crazy, I'm just running.

    For some reason I never looked at the fabric on Hamiltons site and missed this. I'm planning on visiting their store this weekend and I'll check out the tartan they have.
    Armageddon was yesterday. Today we have real problem.

    I had to work half the day and didn't get a chance to stop by. Sparta TN. is only about 2 hours away so it's no problem to drive up on the weekends.
