Buying/browsing dress fabrics online

8 replies

I want to buy some patterned jersey to make a wrapover dress: fed up with not finding both the pattern and style I like in the shops.

Are there any decent online fabric retailers where I could browse more than one or two colours/patterns of, say, viscose elastene jersey. It's the sort of thing where I could go miles to a shop to find they don't even have any. I've not had much luck just googling TBH, just finding disorganised or bargain websites.

found this website. Not used it before so can't say what it's like!

Ditto is meant to be good. Others I've used/been recommended:

www.dotsnstripes.co.uk
www.myfabrics.co.uk
www.macculloch-wallis.co.uk/
www.raystitch.co.uk

Also good blog post here on uk online fabric shops, and I did a post on uk online shops selling organic fabric here where you might find one or two sites worth checking out.

hth!

Dittos quality is very good too, they have a shop local to me, but i find Fabricland www.fabricland.co.uk/here

much cheaper & generally just as good if you can find what you want that is, so I tend to always check there first- though got to admit the website is pretty awful

www.fabricland.co.uk/ Confused - I can never get that to work Hmm

Yes, a second vote for Ditto, good decent sized samples, quickly despatched.
