I have ordered from www.ethelbird.com and love there fabric. It is good quality and I have spoke to the owner on the phone. Also Eleanor Burns website, www.quiltinaday.com has lots of fabric (quality) at excellent prices. those are the two I am familiar with.

I have ordered twice from Over the Rainbow fabric. They carry quality fabric and are very prompt. Plus they do a "generous" cut, 1-4 more inches. I am very pleased with them. They also have the fusible fleece in a wide width by the yard. You can do a bow tuck with just 1 yard.

I've had good luck with Etsy.com (look under "supplies"). If you do your homework by going to the fabric maker websites you'll know what's new and "hot". Check too on what's happening on eBay for comparison. Older designs should carry closeout prices. With a bit of research you can get some really good deals there (low overhead). I've found some very good prices on great fabrics as well as fair shipping costs and quick service. Another "boon" is I've found that final one-yard-cut I need for fabric I've had around for a while.

I buy most of my fabric on line. Have always been pleased with Connecting Threads. If you want to see what all the designers and Moda are offering, I like Quilthome.com. They also do free shipping with $50 order and ship priority mail. Get on their mailing list and get coupons every week. It's a great place.

I have purchased WAY TOO MUCH fabric on EBay and have had very good luck. I love Connecting Threads and I have had great success with Fabric Depot. They have great sales and quality fabrics for as low as $4.00 per yard.Fabric Depot's wide backings are rather inexpensive and very nice. Has anyone tried Thousands of Bolts?
