Can you recommend fabric websites?

16 years ago

I'm planning to a make a long dress but am finding fabric selection where I live in Oklahoma to be atrocious! Can any of you recommend fabric websites that are reasonably priced you have been pleased with? I especially love "modern vintage" fabrics. Here are a few pictures, I'm making the first pattern and really liked the floral fabric on the model in the top pictures. I also liked the green and white in the second pic. The third pic is of calico corners, I love their patterns but they don't have dress fabric!

I love FabricMart.com, but I'm not sure they have anything similar right this minute. Their prices and service are both excellent. They're my first go-to store.

Fabric.com has a huge selection and ships quickly, but the quality of everything I've ordered so far leaves enough to be desired that I don't even look there anymore.

GorgeousFabrics.com has beautiful things. I've not ordered from her, but I know she's known for good service. Her fabric is expensive fabric, but QPR is good.

Denverfabrics.com has a wide selection of everything. I haven't ordered from them yet, but am considering it. Prices are also good but not great.

Emmaonesock.com and Sawyerbrook.com both are rumored to have beautiful fabrics/good service, but their prices are high enough I haven't explored much. I don't their prices are that out of line, I'm just cheap.

Try FashionFabricsClub.com for dress fabric. Calico Corners is actually for upholstery and home dec fabric I think.

I buy a LOT of fabric from Fabric . com, and have never had anything but superb service. As far as I am concerned their quality is great since I only buy lower priced fabric. I have never purchased anything even from the "everything $1.95" department, that had any problems. Their office staff is a dream to work with.
