My LQS in Austin always has lots of Asian prints, and very pretty ones at that. www.aquiltersfolly.com is their website but I don't think they have their fabrics on their website. But it is one of the biggest and prettiest selections under one roof that I have seen.

I just purchased some beautiful Asian fabrics from Fabricdepot.com
The shipping wasn't bad and it was on sale about half price. Wonderful quality and prints I had not been able to find anywhere else.

I bought fabric from debsews2.com. I have also spoken to her too for assistance with selecting some fabrics for an Asian quilt I wanted to make. She's in Honolulu Hawaii so allow for time difference when calling. But she is extremely nice and extremely helpful. She even emailed me the fabric requirements for the pattern I wanted to make so I could buy the fabric at the same time as the pattern and save on shipping. Deb is really great!!!

I could just walk into the LQS and take my pick for a fat price, which is a satisfying experience, but so is saving some money.

I'm specifically looking for twelve different blue Asian/Oriental fat quarters for a Jewel Box quilt I'll eventually make.

Thanks! This site is such a wonderful resource.

Fabric.com just came out with a new line of Asian Fabrics. check them out.

Ebay is a wonderful source for fabric.
