Great quality as expected. I didn't notice any weird fraying or knots halfway through. The color was just as expected (I had bought some previously from JoAnn's and needed a refill.) Used it to make a tree skirt (see picture). It's a nice old-fashioned Christmas red. Obviously, it IS economy yard - a bit bulky and rough - but unless you're making something that needs to be more sleek, this suits very well. Plus, the color options and price make this a great option as well.
