Blackest solid Black Fabric Review

Hi all,
I have rec'd my package (yesterday) of fabric that I ordered from Big
Horn Fabrics last week. It is the new Michael Miller Jet Black and is
supposed to be the Blackest of the Blacks solid Black fabric.
Comparing it next to some of my other "wanna-be" black solids I would
say that it is a keeper. I paid $5.00 a yard for it at Big Horn
(locally it was $10.95 per yard) so it was well worth it.

Thank you, Kathy. Mental note made. Better than that, I wrote it down in my
always by computer shorthand pad. In cursive. Sometimes I can read my
shorthand, sometimes not. Polly

Interesting!
I went to buy a couple of black and white's on Friday. The assistant
showed me two others. I said, no they're navy and white. They are
black she said - and proceeded to show me the trade ordering card where
it said 'black'. So, having been told, I bought the two FQ's! When I
got home I compared them with various of my blacks and black/whites.
They still looked navy. I washed them - they looked black for a while!!
When they were dry and ironed, I thought, 'you twit, if they look navy,
no amount of saying they're black will make them look black'! So, I've
set them aside for when I need a navy.
Moral: black is very subjective.

And furthermore. Some blacks are not very friendly with each other. I have
four blacks over on the cutting table right now. One is leaning toward a
cool blue, another is sort of warm green. The variances won't make a bit of
difference with what I'm cutting. It's a "the more, the merrier" sort of
splashy thing. Polly
