PUL question

I posted this in a couple other groups, but no one really has had an answer yet, so I figured I'd try in here and see if anyone in here has an answer. 

I've not made diapers in... a good 3-4 months..... I'm slowly getting back into the groove, especially since my arms are FINALLY better and I can sew again.... But I need to know about this Babyville PUL from Joanns, is it the same PUL that fabric.com sells? I usually buy my PUL from Fabric.com, but I noticed they both say their PUL is from babyville, if Joanns is the same quality, I'd much rather buy from them and not have to wait on shipping since my Joanns is only like 15 minutes from me. So let me know so I can start popping out a couple diapers here and there. I know there were some issues with the babyville PUL when it first came out, but have they fixed it?

Fabric.com carries Babyville PUL, but they also carry another brand of PUL.  I have used the Babyville PUL with out problem but he PUL from Fabric.com is easier for me to use. The only way I will use the Babyville is where I can actually check on it to see it it is not delaminating....like on covers or pockets.

I've been using all the babyville supplies since they came out and have had no issues with any of it (after I switched out the shank and die in the snap pliers).
I love the printed PUL #1: it is so much easier to sew with! I can even not use my walking foot without having issues. #2 the prints do NOT fade at all! I am rough on my dipes and all my babyville pul prints still look brand new! So many other prints fade like crazy after just a few hot washes - now that is frustrating!
The foe is easier to use, plusher, and doesn't pill anywhere near as bad as some of the other foe i've gotten!
And if you do end up having issues with any of the supplies, they stand behind their products 100%!! the small amount of people who have had delam issues have had their materials replaced including snaps, etc...

 I ahve not had any problems with my pul from babyville.  Also, they ahve a fb page and a regular website where you can send them a message in case you do have problems.  They stand by their product and will replace if there are issues, I don't know many companies that do that.   I love the designs.

I love the printed babyville PUL from JoAnns. I also have other patterned PULs but the babyville seems more sturdy. Not only that but if you get a 40% or 50% coupon which they have all the time it makes the PUL  SUPER affordable. My 2 cents, but I also work at a JoAnns in Colorado

Fabric.com sells the Babyville Pul as does Joanns, Hancock and Hobby Lobby along with the coordinating accessories.  Babyville has addressed the issues with the initial problems in some of the products and stand behind their products with excellent customer service.

I've used the babyville pul with no problems, I think it's held up very well too!

i've used the babyville with no issues, except price. I've also used fabric.com's no issues. I mainly order mine from http://www.diapersewingsupplies.com/ or http://www.wahmsupply.com/. Nothing against babyville, only thing i can purchase locally at hobby lobby, closest joann's is a 45 min drive. They have a pretty limited selection locally for me.
