Don't know but if it's a pair of pants I hope they finally get their act together and bring us some petite sizes.

@BaileyBop I doubt we'll ever see that happen. They have a weird attitude toward petites. I just wonder if the company is being driven by Jeanne's son and he does see the need for them since mama didn't wear them I wonder if he has any idea how much $$$ he's losing? I haven't bough any pants in going on two years and don't plan to in the future.

I got the email yesterday...a276853. I'm not buying....I was hoping that both tee shirts had a summer motif....I don't need another tee with studs and rhinestones, so an easy pass for me. I'm kinda disappointed in this TSV.

I remember hearing JB explain her idea of what a petite means in her line: no adjustments other than length.

I'd never heard of such a thing, but it seems she was targeting a specific demographic of petites that did not include those that need a total size adjustment.

@Loveac

Thanks for the item number. Do like a couple of the color combos but not a fan of the fabric. My guess is TSV price will be high $30's.

The price is $39.96...

Quacker Factory is too expensive for what you get. They have switched from 100% cotton to 60%cotton/40%polyester. I will never buy another tee shirt from them I liked the 100%cotton. The last tee shirt I bought was listed as 100% cotton but when I received it I thought it felt like rubber. I think it was 95%cotton/5%spandex. Sent it back.

And I'm the opposite. I quit purchasing Quacker Factory because I did not like the 100% cotton shirts. I recently purchased a QF shirt in the 60/40 blend and LOVE it! I got the TSV in the yellow combo......I love anything with a "cruising" theme!

A pass for me....

I prefer the 60% cotton also. I like the shirts but am not sure about the theme Still thinking. And I'm more of a capri wearer than shorts.

I like the TSV and ordered two sets. The yellow and blue set and the black and white set. I wear a medium and always find them true to size. I have to get rid of the older 100% cotton QF tops that are too short. I have a few of the QF 60/40 tops and there is a big difference in them when washing. I love the softness of them.

Since I retired I seem to always pull one of Quacker Factory shirts out rather than a more dressy one. I dressed up every day for over twenty years working in a physician's office so I am loving just "being me".

I ordered the red/navy set with the flag...

I especially love the red one with the red/white/blue spray of sparkle...great for the 4th of July to go and watch the fireworks...or when I want to do a red/white/blue without a flag!!!

I still have three of the cotton tee shirts that I bought at least 5 years ago. They all look good. I have had no problem with shrinkage. I wash them in cold water and hang them to dry because they had rhinestones on them. One is a love dog shirt- it is really nice with different dogs on the shirt. I get many compliments. Polyester is hot during the summer months. One of polyester's drawbacks is that it holds on to odors much more than cotton, potentially even through extensive washing; if you often find yourself sweating in a polyester garment, it may permanently take on your body odor over the long term.So, cotton usually beats polyester for coolness

I recently bought set of 2 A275268 and really like them. Think that's enough for this summer.

I couldn't decide on which set to get so I got 2....the navy flag/red and butterfly grey/turquose.....I'm treating myself to a casual new wardrobe so I'm set. I bought some Denim and Co months ago and now QF. I haven't ordered much with QF for a long time.

My DH is losing his job and starting an early retirement if nothing comes about so it's now or not for a long time. Health insurace will kill us; it's so expensive.

I hope I like these and fit well.
