Hi Everyone!
Here is a small Temu Haul that I did for the first time. I was okay with everything I bought I just wanted to give it a try. I did buy a few other things that I show you that are not sewing related.

I’ve bought several things from Temu that was okay but some of the stuff was just cheap junk made in China. Fortunately they do accept returns so I’ve done that with the items I didn’t want. As far as the jelly rolls I was so disappointed because they were not what I expected. I did keep them tho. I’ll add them to my scrap quilts.

You have to look at all the pics. They always show dimensions in cm and inches. Have a ruler on hand to look up ;the dimensions. Moda should sue Temu for using the term jelly roll when in fact these are 2/5 strips by 19.5 inches. I also saw a headline for fat quarters, which were in described dimensions as 10 " by 10 ". Go below the pictures to item description and usually it will say the fabric content/ the headline may say cotton, but content may be cotton or polyester cotton. Beware but you can get fabric at a good price. I look at fabric then go back. Usually the next day that fabric is offered to me at half price.

I recently bought fabric. 2 jelly rolls and 2 alleged 5x5 packs. The packs of 5x5’s were both off by 1+ inch. The jelly rolls were not 2” wide and all different lengths. The fabrics were pretty and cheap so I won’t bother sending back but I won’t buy again. Im creative, as we all are, and I’m sure I can do something with them.

I bought fabrics that were advertised as quilting fabric and they were extremely coarse and unsuitable for quilting. They had a weird chemical smell, as soon as I took them out of the plastic which was unpleasant. In addition, the sizes were all over the place. I also bought quilting rulers, they were really inaccurate and also unfit for purpose.

I wash in hot water with color catchers all my Temu fabric. Then in a hot dryer. Yes, even the 4.9 inch squares. I separate the pack of 50 or 100. I then put them in a hot dryer. Surprisingly very colorfast and a trace of shrinkage and hardly no fraying. I then I lay them out on a big piece of cardboard and spray them with Niagra spray starch till lightly soaked, when dry, I iron them with a dry iron. I get great squares of crisp fabric which I use in quilts, I am in my 1930s phase of patterns. I think that our quilting foremothers would use this fabric as they used well-worn shirts, undergarments, pants, dresses, and feed/flour sacks. I don't think they would be so picky as quilters purport themselves to be. Absolutely no promblems with the quilts. I have also purchases wovens/homespun type fabrics that were excellent to use in my denim rag quilts. The upshot is, that there are practically no US manufacturers. On is the Fabric Mill in New York. Cherrywood hand dyed fabrics are hand dyed in the US but they don't say where they get their muslin. Most high quality cotton muslin is made in Pakistan. As to slave labor, is you drive a battery powered vehicle, the rare earths used in making the earth polluting battery are mined by child slave labor Look it up if you're fastidious about not supportin slave labor.

I agree with all of your comments on the fabric packets and "jelly roll". I purchased the exact same ones. I purchased larger pieces as well and they are similar. Some had that smell. Some more than others. Some have aired out since out of the plastic but I feel they may need at least a rinse if making a clothing item. A few of the fabric packets were a bit thin compared to others. still a great value for a beginner. You don't mind if you make a mistake.

But I haven't had trouble using them in Quilt projects. I'm cutting them anyway. And the quality, I haven't noticed anything different from fabrics I bought in the USA.

I have purchased many things from Temu, the key thing to remember is ready descriptions and look at the pictures carefully, many times they will show measurements in the pictures. Heck I found and purchased the "Clearly Perfect Slotted trimmers" 2 piece set for under $6.00USD. You know these sell for about $30.00 USD here in the states. Sadly when I went back to buy more for guild members they were sold out. I have also purchased the same set of seam guides as well as many different rules, all of good quality. Temu is the place to get some wonderful deals if you pay attention.

I have bought many different things from Temu and been happy with just about everything. I bought a set of tools for breadmaking and they were perfect and I wanted to do a project using glass beads, I got a large variety of different coloured beads and they are superb. Just make sure they are not sprayed with the colour and that the colour is actually IN the bead, they do stipulate so its easy if you look and read. I also bought one of their dutch ovens to make my bread in and it is perfect, you can use it for casseroles and anything else, but I keep it for bread.I have bought various quilting supplies and fabrics and the fabrics often feel scratchy and smelly at first but the more you wash them the better and softer they get. I did by a couple of metres of a lovely linen with a pattern on and made my favourite dress out of it. I live mainly in hot climate so linen is perfect here and the more I wash it the softer it gets and easy to iron too. I paid over $300 for a similar linen dress which washes similarly and is definitely no better than the linen I bought from Temu for a few dollars. So, I have no complaints as yet, and I will keep buying from them. Thanks for your video....

Well, most of the stores in the US order from China so it’s all about the same

Not buying from Temu won't change any of that, becasue there are millions of people that the Temu prices to them are as our local prices are to us.

Please try to think sustainably. More is not better. If the quality is off eg rings turning fingers green, it’ll just all end up in landfill. Waste of money and resources.

Please research about the labor practices of the vendors that supply Temu. Some use forced labor. There is a reason products are so cheap.

Don’t bother buying fabric, poor quality and their jelly rolls are not as long as ours and of very thin material. i ordered an L shaped ruler, they wrapped it around the fabric, I was neve able to get to lie straight….after all that time it still curls. One time buyer….never again and I prefer to encourage American companies that sell some great fabrics at reasonable prices, such as Marshall’s Fabric. Beautiful fabric, great quality.

i agree, their descriptions are horrible. From other reviews their layer cakes are assorted size squares and not anywhere near 40 pieces. I guess that is what you get dealing with the Chinese mafia.

Be careful of the lead content of those cheap rings...they may be hazardous to the health of "little" people. Unless they were lead free (coming from China I would doubt that) I would not touch them with a 10 foot pole much less expose my grandkids to them. So many things from China have extremely high lead content as well as other hazardous metals.

Oh that’s too bad. I would have been very disappointed as well. It seems by the comments that some people got exactly what they thought they ordered and some, well not so much. It seems that some of the descriptions can be misleading. Thanks for sharing that😊❤️

I would NEVER buy fabric or clothing from temu, the overall quality is poor at best. The cutting on fabric is dreadful. To get an item of clothing that is good quality is an absolute miracle
