Hi,
I was wondering if you buy fabrics online and if so could you please give us the links and information if you had good service etc. Thanks again! Karen "Craftybear" |
I have bought fabrics on occasion from,
www.thumpacat-fabrics.co.nz This is in New Zealand and the service has been wonderful! Gal |
connecting threads is best and fabric.com, joanns may be their some others just type in quilting fabrics some lqs have web sites too. oh don't forget e bay
|
I ordered from thousandsofbolts.com
Great prices and lots to order from! Great service |
Some of the places I order from are fabricdepot,rossvillequilts,Quiltthis. Quiltthis has excellent service,
I also use quiltshops.com when searching for a certain fabric. |
all the time!!!
www.connectingthreads.com www.thousandsofbolts.com www.discountembroiderysupply.com (great for purchasing sulky rayon threads for dirt cheap prices) www.jhittle.com |
I have used several of the sites others have listed and also have used favoritefabrics.com and craftconn.com
|
Ah, another one of these... :-) If you search for online fabric shops on this board, you'll find several threads posted in the last few months alone.
I've ordered from: webfabrics.com thousandsofbolts.com favoritefabrics.com equilter.com fabric.com So far I've had good experiences, I'd happily buy again from each of them. Fabric.com are a bit odd for international shipping, unlike most they won't split your order if sending it in two envelopes would be cheaper than in one big box so I have to watch out what I'm doing with them. |
I buy lots and lots of fabrics from the eBay store
crowsnestquiltingfabrics. They are awesome and their Red Rooster fabrics are only $2.99 a yard! My aunt gave me a link that she buys from but I haven't tried it yet. (She has) That's marshalldrygoods.com. I love their prices too. |
Forgot:
fabricparadise.com :-) |
I have bought from some of the sites listed above.
I also like: www.bugfabric.com www.fabricdepot.com another one that was suggested to me, but I have not used yet is www.whittlesfabrics.com I especially like the sites with design boards so you can compare thumbnails side by side |
Love "The Virginia Quilter "Fast shipping and wonderful fabric
also "Missouri star quilting company" Missouri star has deal of the day. I check every day to see what it is. I have ordered several time & always happy. |
Yes, there was a similar thread the other day. Here it is:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-24522-1.htm |
I buy a lot from virginiaquilter.com; eleanorburnsquilt in a day; hancoks of paducah. Have had good luck with all of them.
|
Fabshophop.com will connect to many,many on-line quilt shops. I do the Fab Shop hop every other month or so and get some discounts or gift certificates at no charge.
|
www.fabricparadise.com
She has a lot of out of print, hard to find fabrics. And a lot of them aren't on her website yet so if you can't find what you're looking for just call her. She has great service too. I ordered on a Thursday and the fabric was here on Monday from Conneticut to Illinois. |

Connectingthreads.com and thousands of bolts have both been good to me.
|
I shop ebay, fabric.com, Hancock's of Paducah, thousands of bolts, and more. I am always searching for a good sale as I cannot afford $8-10 per yard. I have bought from others, and have never had a problem. Shipping charges can be tricky for some, tho. ebay sellers will state they can send 7-8 yards cotton fabric in $5.00 Priority Envelope, while others, for example, my last order from equilter.com, I purchased 6.5 yds of sale fabric, but had to pay regular rate, $9.50 for postage, I called them about it and they said that sale fabrics shipping rates are charged by what their full price was, not the sale price. Needless to say, not too happy, but fabric was nice and I got over it.
|
I order often from equilter.com. Have had the best service from them. Also, thefatquaterstore.com and keepsakequilting.com oh and seawatchfabric.com they have great oriental fabrics.
|
I've purchased from several different businesses and have been pleased with all of them. I don't buy fabric off e-bay from individuals because you never know for sure what it is.

J and O Fabrics has a lot of fun fabric, trademark, animal, children's, sports and others. |
ok, I have to tell you what happened to me. I have one credit card I use for online shopping which is mostly for fabric and threads etc. I have shopped at most of the stores mentioned. One day a lady called me from QVC (home shopping) and asked me if I purchased a computer to be sent to NY. She gave me my last 4 digits of my CC...EEK..I said NO,OOOO. She cancelled the order and told me to cancel my CC (which I did). The only reason she called me is because it is their policy to call and verify if the name doesn't match the card number....Thank goodness she did!! I don't even know anyone in NY! I have always only used this card on "secure" sites so...beware everyone!

http://www.apennyforluck.com
We never have any problems with customer purchases or deliveries. Please stop by and take a look. |
I second Fabric Depot. Plus you can't beat Over The Rainbow in Washinton State. I think the URL is www.overrainbow.com.
|
www.fabric.com
www.jofabrics.com I've had no problems, and the fabric comes FAST! |
I have ordered from the Fat Quarter shop a number of times. It is quilt-specific, they have kits and FQ bundles, etc. The owner Kimberly is awesome and I have not had any trouble with them:
http://www.fatquartershop.com I have also ordered from fabric.com twice. Again, no issues. |
lots of my favorites have already been listed. i would like to add one "go-to" site i discovered during the february fabshophop.
http://www.homesteadhearth.com/ |
If you go to quiltshops.com you will see many of the places I have done business with. I like Ann's Fabric and Crafts, in New Hampshire, the best.
|
I buy from any online shop that has a clearance at the time I want to buy. I've never had any problems. Any online shop that doesn't know one bad review posted about bad service can result in thousands of no orders deserve to be out of business.
|
I was wondering if there is a online site for buying thread. I ma interested in finding Masterpiece by alex Anderson or King tut bu superior.
|
I have found it hard to find hand dyes locally and a special project that calls for color gradations or applique work might need them. Janet Smith is wonderful to work with. She will even send swatches. She also sells pieces in very small amounts. Her prices are very reasonable considering what they are. Here is the link. https://www.textileart.com]https://www.textileart.com[/url]
|
Have shopped at equilter.com. Beautiful fabrics, great service and they donate part of your purchase to charities (you can choose from a list.)
|
If I may toot my own horn.... I sell pre-cut Moda fabrics online on my own website, ebay, and etsy, also have a facebook page (please be my friend!) but I don't actually sell from there, only promote. I only accept PayPal so both the buyer and seller are protected. I rarely get any complaints but if I do I handle them pronto. My shipping is free on website orders and I use only USPS First Class Mail on single item orders, or USPS Priority Mail if the package weighs more than 13 ounces. My customers love the fabric and the fast, free shipping.

I buy fabric often on line. My favorite shops show large swatches, descriptions, and "eQuilter.com" has color matching and lists items related to the swatch you are looking at.They always have a sale or two, and a list each week of new fabrics. I am always looking for unusual fabric with good designs and unique fabric as well as fabric with texture. Diana T Quimby

I am buying more and more fabrics on line. My favorite place is
www.fabricshack.com which is here in Ohio. They have the largest and best selection of fabrics I have ever seen both on line and in their store. I also order from: Keepsake Quilting, Virginia Quilter, Suzanne's Quilt Shop, Connecting Threads, and Ebay. So far I have never had a problem with on line buying. |
fabricshack.com is a good one.
