Where to shop for quality fabrics?
Permalink Closed

Hello all,

I am thinking of having some of my favorite summer pieces duplicated (and perhaps some patterns made) and need to buy quality fabric (linens, cottons - in both solid and prints) The stock at my local Joann Fabrics store was a bit dysmal- any recs for places to buy quality material? both online and brick and mortar are fine........just not sure where to start, besides Liberty


patterns im eyeballing so far:

I don't recommend to shop for fabrics online, you have to touch them, to feel, where do you live?
