Ladies who sew (especially MN ladies)

MississippiCatfish · February 2014

Where do you sewing ladies like to buy fabric? I've had pretty good luck at JoAnn, where I discovered last week the prices are much better than Hancock! I remember someone (@mnkate?) saying that Crafty Planet has great fabric. Anyone else have suggestions? Including online?

Thanks!

Hawthorne Threads and fabric.com are my two favorite online stores. I like Joann's and Hobby Lobby for shopping in store.

Hobby lobby! They are always on sale and great quality.

I've always had the best luck at Hobby Lobby. They have great patterns and colored burlap. ::swoon::

Our closest Hobby Lobby is an hour+ away:( I'll have to check out their online store, I guess!

I use Hawthorethreads.com and fabric.com-- fabric.com always has free shipping on $35 or over, and they have a lot of great sales. For organic fabrics and imports I use fabricworm.com or pinkchalkfabrics.com.

There's fabricworm.com but I haven't bought any thing from there yet.

Mill end closed a couple weeks ago :0(

Damn it

I am going home in a few weeks and was planning to go there. That sucks.

I have kind of unique needs (I make historical reproduction clothing) but I love:

fabrics-store.com for linen--really gorgeous selection for reasonable prices, given that it's 100% linen

dharmatrading.com for fine cotton and silk--they only carry white and black, but I like dyeing it myself.

Ebay seller Happy Good Buy (I am not making this up) for silk charmeuse

and

Dorr Mill Store for wool

I feel like Joann's has really stepped up their fabrics. I've never been impressed with what Hobby Lobby has had to offer. I'm in Rochester though, so maybe it's different down here. fabricworm.com has some great fabric collections.

@mnkate That is so funny - I have been to SR Harris! I had to look up the name to see if that was the place, but I stopped there a few years ago when I was looking for something for our wedding. I was kind of scared because it is so warehouse-ish and I wasn't sure I belonged in there! But knowing that other real people go there makes me want to check it out again. It seems like their cottons are almost always 50% off on their sign.

I was just browsing Google offers and they have a 50% regular priced fabric deal for SR Harris. It's good for use through the end of March but you have to download it by 2/28.

Eta: There's also one for 30% off an item at Joann Fabric.
