I happened to wear a blouse made with fabric purchased from there and she was so kind to compliment it. The prices are a little high, or very high but the quality is outstanding. Case in point of good customer service: I purchased 1 yard of this to die for red silk wool which was pricey and then they gave me the remaining 1/2 yard to 3/4 yard FREE!Sickofitcindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14453877357334702545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654329590294133998.post-55051607192058350892011-02-02T14:47:11.081-05:002011-02-02T14:47:11.081-05:00Doris, they're written on the bolts.

I think I've seen it, but it looks a lot like B&J from the outside (same side of street, also on a corner, also an upper floor, also an arch on the building). Budget-wise, I felt like a fish out of water at B&J, so that's probably why I mentally skipped R&C, too. But I'll stop in next time. Look at those cottons! If you're a quilter, you're always on the lookout for those in the GD. (Hope that window has UV protection, tho...)<br /><br />I know what you mean about prices not being marked. In some little NYC stores, I've asked, said that's more than I wanted to spend, and started to walk out. The price usually drops on the spot! Either that, or they'll decide they can sell me only a half yard after all.QuiltBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654329590294133998.post-43976874481882151632011-02-02T11:34:40.105-05:002011-02-02T11:34:40.105-05:00That's good to know!

It makes me feel like the salespeople are sizing me up, trying to figure out the max I would be willing to pay.

But it's a great store, and there have been times when I've been looking for something specific and, after not finding it in all my usual places, found it there.Cliohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05552253628640209694noreply@blogger.com
