Where do you but your fabric from online?

[Sillybillybob]

I have a couple of websites that I use but I'm quite new at sewing and am looking for recommendations for good, reliable fabric websites. Thanks.

I use eBay, www.frumble.co.uk www.fabricrehab.co.uk www.plushaddict.co.uk and www.seamstar.co.uk

Seamstar have a monthly club too where they send a little box with a project, fabric, ribbon etc.

Uh- oh that is NOT going to help my bank balance!!!

I use abakhan

I use e-fabrics for basic cottons and poly cotton blends.

They are reliable and quick and have a good range of plain colours, tiny dotted fabrics, polka dot fabrics and little floral pattern fabrics.

Won't break the bank either

Am just browsing Abakhan now, love finding a new fabric shop!

Fabric Guild for cheap quilting fabric (though it's hit and miss what they have in and the ordering system is odd - they email you with a total that includes postage)

Cotton Patch
Prints To Polka Dots
Simply Solids
Barnyarns for thread (they have amazing customer service)

This is my current favourite - [[http://www.myfabrichouse.co.uk/8-fabricbundles?p=2 My Fabric House - although some of the others on this thread could challenge for that accolade.

I also like this one if you are after quilting fabric.

I well and truly cocked up those links

My Fabric House here

Pelenna Patchwork here

My fabric house looks great!

Oh good God now I feel the need to get in to quilting just so as I can buy stuff from My Fabric House!!! I should never have started this thread...

Fabric rehab have some really unusual prints. I love their nordic and japanese stuff.

I just ordered a load of stuff from fabric rehab. It's my favourite shop.

I've used

www.fabricland.co.uk/
But you'll need shades as it has to be the worst website in the world, fabric not bad though if you can bear it!

There's also a couple of good sellers on eBay - Maggies Fab Fabrics is one.

Can you tell I have a bit if a problem when it comes to fabric

Hi, I buy fabrics from:
www.guthrie-ghani.co.uk
therunningchicken.co.uk
www.raystitch.co.uk/
www.thevillagehaberdashery.co.uk
www.shaukat.co.uk/ great for Liberty fabrics.

I also buy fabrics from www.fabricsgalore.co.uk [in store although they do have a web shop] and Etsy.com

Can I ask what you make with the bundles? 50x50cm isn't going to make you much?! Or is it purely for quilting?

I'm very new to sewing - can you tell?

If you are doing a big project importing from www.fabric.com can be a good deal.

I use FB co-op groups mostly, there are quite a few out there if you search.
Also, www.fabric.com, Rooftop Fabrics, www.fabricland.co.uk, and rijstextiles.com/.

www.frumble.co.uk
www.thepolishedbutton.co.uk
ebay and etsy

HectorVector I tend to make quilts with Fat Quarter bundles but there are lots of other patterns to make with fat quarters. I think the Sew Mama Sew blog had a big list of some here

Oohh thank you. I got a sewing machine for Christmas so I'm a complete newbie but I've already made one of those carrier bag holder thingy whatsits from a tutorial on Pinterest. Off to look at your link.

Just have come across this fab shop.. Amazing range ordered yesterday arrived today.. However have also through this thread signed up to seamstar monthly craft club (received very quickly my first pack) my other favs are ray stitch and beyond fabrics ..

I'm with mckayz. I love plushaddict!! Great selection & their search function is brilliant.

Abakhans and ebay for me.

I use Fabric Rehab, Eclectic Maker, Celtic Fusion Fabrics and for anything dressmaker Calico Laine or ClothSpot

Love the Fabric Rehab and Seamstar sites. Bookmarked. I'd like to find gorgeous prints in viscose. I've got a lovely dress from White Stuff in viscose that drapes beautifully. I find 100% cotton adds bulk and jersey is awful on me - clings in the wrong places and shows every lump, bump and line.

So if anyone knows of anywhere, please could you let me know?
