I am also lucky enough to have a fantastic fabric store Nancys Sewing Basket in Seattle just a 5 minute walk form my house.They have beautiful fabric and a ribbon room that is especially fantastic with vintage ribbons, buttons and more. I am using Champagne Radiance for my fabric, still deciding on the embellishments.

I have to call them long distance (last I checked they didn't have a 1-800 number) to confirm any order and get rates. I don't understand why that is when other websites can easily ship to Canada/Internationally... I asked them, but they ignored me :( I guess I could use skype or something and at least call for free... but it just seems like such a hassle when most other companies can easily ship to Canada. [end rant]<br />Fabric.com is wonderful, they ship so fast. I sometimes get things within a two to three days of ordering! <br />Etsy is a great resource too :)<br />Like Jan, I sometimes find great fabric at our local thrift stores. Fabric is often hidden in with the curtains.betterdressedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09737306444524901411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88001083355758616.post-28939879281345656202013-04-09T00:41:00.286+02:002013-04-09T00:41:00.286+02:00i actually bought an ugly dress made of super cute...i actually bought an ugly dress made of super cute fabric at one of the local thrift stores....had it in waiting before you announced the sew along.....so it is now ready to become "knickers"!!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12950271785271309409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88001083355758616.post-15898489118108465942013-04-09T00:31:14.069+02:002013-04-09T00:31:14.069+02:00FabricMart is great too, and often has silk at irr...FabricMart is great too, and often has silk at irresistable prices! http://www.fabricmartfabrics.com/xcart/Silk-Fabrics/ Shipping internationally is a bit pricey, but it's a flat rate of $8 in the US.ginnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12471994399712039428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88001083355758616.post-54153428479361876912013-04-08T13:31:34.630+02:002013-04-08T13:31:34.630+02:00Fabric.com is my favorite just because the shippin...Fabric.com is my favorite just because the shipping is so much faster.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16422713085145888286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88001083355758616.post-62402516572044551552013-04-08T11:48:00.683+02:002013-04-08T11:48:00.683+02:00Thanks for these resources.
