Why did Daisy change the fabric on the dish rags? The ones I bought at the Amish store about 3years ago were GREAT. The on-line are not as good. I would like a bunch of the old, single fabric kind if they still exist. Can I still get them? Why did Daisy change the fabric on the dish rags?

I am not familiar with 'Daisy'. There was a dishcloth maker that made a 'Sunflower' dishcloth, but they appear to be unavailable.

Well, you can still get these from the Amish hardware store (Google it) for $9.95 for a set of four. The fabric is a cotton/poly blend and they say it hasn't changed.

I have done a lot of research into that ,they are made by a company called Aunt Martha's although they all come with a tag 100% cotton ,made in india . Now I am not sure if the cotton is grown and milled there or if they actually make the towels . They are well made and very durable when used and washed . I myself have been trying to find where I can get them wholesale rather than retail ,cost is killing me, lots of work and little profit embroidering them. But haven't had any luck finding anyone but Amazon who sells them cheep enough. There is another company that sells wholesale towels called Hoffmen but they sell only terry cloth and the few that are not are linen only.

Kathy, it's not cloth like and mine only lasted a month before breaking. You'd be better off going to a fabric shop and buying on you can physically look at.

This could be due to amount of time spent in the dye, the difference in dye, or even the difference in fabric. If both are sold by the same company and drastic in difference, I would contact the seller.

I've had my Mint over a year and haven't had to replace any of the cloths. I have 3 sets of 3 and change them out daily since I run my Mint once a day. I throw the dirty rags in the wash and that's it

The outer layer of fabric is denim. The inner layer is absorbent cotton diaper-like material. I wash these in a machine using hot water and I dry them in the dryer.There is slight shrinkage after washing and drying, but after a day, the fabric loosens and fits like it originally did.The edges tend to curl and the tinkle belt fabrics tend to be lumpy if I dry them in the dryer and FULLY dry them. If I take them out while damp and smooth them on a flat surface to air dry...no problem! I am so pleased with the results from using Tinkle Belts! I should have bought them a LOT sooner than I did! That would have saved me a LOT of frustration! The outer layer of fabric is denim. The inner layer is absorbent cotton diaper-like material.

I am guessing not. That is what I thought I was ordering as I think those are the best dish cloths. These do not have the Sangamon Mills sticker on them and are much flimsier.

I think so but not 100% sure. When I was growing up I believe they were made by Sagamon Mills dishcloths. While the name on these sold on Amazon are different they are exactly like the ones we had growing up and last a long time

I don't know if you guys realize the package of which the new one's light pattern is covered by a piece of paper compared to the old one's light pattern showing clearly. Do you guys think it means something? although it is absolutely genuine and it is not that bad, I feel not so good for this unannounced change. Actually, the old light pattern 500G does exist, but its box is using entirely plastic packing just like the special edition version. Both of them are sold in my local bestbuy store, so I can compare them head to head. In addition, the new one's bottom and sides are plastic, but for the old version only the sides are plastic. It looks like I did too much researches, but just for fun.

Ignored it, I guess. Granted, it isn't the best cheesecloth I've ever used, but I've learned to work around the unraveling. That isn't something that was important to me. Don't know if buying a more expensive cloth would make any difference or not. Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you.

That's a very good question all 4 of mine have fallen off. I was going to check a craft store or fabric store but I too would like to know if anyone knows for sure.

I have owned the Seville Classics Bamboo cutting board and mats for about 5 years. The color never came off the mats, but they did get cut up pretty badly after about 3 years, so I replaced them (just the mats) with a new set which I found online. You can put the mats in the dishwasher or wash them by hand, and the bamboo looks almost new. I love this item and it's the only cutting board I use now.

I have to inform you outright that I am not knowledgeable about fabrics. Having said that, it is a combination of "suede-like" or flocked material. If I were to choose what material I would use in making it, I think this is it. After each use, I would brush it with the cloth lint brusher to make it look like new again. I understand they came up with a protective sleeve that you can wash. So far, I have not found the need for that yet.

Mine was in perfect condition. However I don't know if it was my careless washing but I do have a few spots that faded after several washes. It does hold up well. I've washed it too many times to remember as it is on my kitchen table and gets a lot of use. I cover the faded spots with placemats and its not even noticeable to anyone but me. The fabric looks as good as new even after all the washes.

Although I was VERY careful using and cleaning it, it did not last long. I didn't even recycle it to a thrift shop. I saw it in a retail store this week.....for MUCH less than I paid for it through Amazon. It was exactly the same......not really a bargain since it would be thrown away too. I agree with Sasha: I would be interested in a QUALITY version.

The first time I washed the quilt I hung it out to dry and then the second time I actually put it in the dryer cause I was in a hurry. I didn't see a change in sizing. At the time I was using it on a twin sized bed before I bought the full that I have now. When I made the bed after putting it in the dryer the quilt hung the same length on both sides that it had before washing. It didn't change at all. I have had this quilt now for about 6-7 months and I am still very satisfied with it. I'm also pretty sure that the tag might say preshrunk but I'm not sure, I'd have to look, but mine didn't change in size at all after washing and drying. Hope this helps!
