I love to find the folks who are selling estate sales stuff. Usually they are cleaning out an elderly person's craft room and are bulking things together. You can get some great batches of notions, trims and cotton fabric. When I have a customer who is very specific about a fabric for a wreath or table piece, I often go on Etsy for the focus fabric. I have found some outstanding pieces (only need either half yard or max one yard) and they shipping is only a couple dollars. I wouldn't do this for regular fabric, but for a specialty focus fabric, it is great. (I balance the cost for the product by using solids or great deal fabrics and can still keep my wreaths to under $6 in product). Only caution I would have about the estate sales is to not buy the thread. Often it is 100% cotton but very old.

I am with you on estate sellers/destash sales. But, they seem to be more sporadic than sellers who always have fabric.

Oh darn, they were so nice to do business with. That one named Crowsnest is also very good. I'm trying to think of others.

Did find pmfabrics. I haven't ordered from them, but they have a lot of nice designer fabrics for $5.95-$6.95/yard and 100% positive feedback. I emailed them, they only cut in yard increments (asked about FQ or half yards). When I need some bigger pieces I will give them a try. Lots of RJR-Jinny Beyer, etc and nice batiks.

I find one of the best places to buy online is Marshalls Dry Goods, they have better prices, a good quality and ever changing selection.

I don't use eBay much anymore when I do, I usually buy from Alice in Stitches. Never had a problem with them, ever.
