Purchasing Fabric Online

Recently I received a question from someone asking where online I have purchased my fabric.  So, I thought I would answer her in a post, just in case some others of you were wondering the same thing. Of course, there are countless online fabric stores, but these are just the ones that I have experience with.

My go to is Fabric.com.  They have all kinds of fabric -- home decor, quilting, and apparel -- and their prices are very reasonable.  Shipping is free, with any order over $35, and it's usually easy to come up with that big of an order.

When I purchased the huge order of burlap that I keep using for various projects, I ordered it from Online Fabric Store.  This site is especially helpful if you're ordering many yards of the same fabric, as the cost is discounted for larger quantities.

My mother-in-law introduced me to Chez Ami, which sells beautiful children's apparel.  They also sell their fabric, and it's beautiful!  I purchased some this winter that was on clearance for about $3/yard, and I really love the fabric.  You can sign up to receive their newsletter via email, so that you know when the sales are.

Ashley, from The Handmade Home wrote a great post listing all of her favorite fabric sources, and you can find that post here.  She has much more experience with this than I do, so I wanted you to have that great resource!

If any of you have other great online fabric sources, please, leave in the comments so we can all benefit from your great finds!
