It depends on how old the fabric is -- If I know it is old I check ETSY and EBAY first, then I do a search. For newer fabric I do an online search (first Bing, then Google since they don't prioritize results the same) and I look for online shops I know that carry the fabric.

to the OP.....make sure that the fabric you are looking for is currently in the marketplace vs "future" release.

And they will indicate if the fabric has released/shipped to shops or if it is a future release.
It does not tell which shops actually bought the particular fabric....just lists names of shops that have ordered from them in the past.
