online source for wide fabric

Fabric Depot, in Portland, OR has a number of wide fabrics, from plain muslin to prints -- all I've fondled have been on good quality greige goods, and up to 120" wide. Some he https://www.fabricdepot.com/index.php?page=CatalogPage&pageid=74 https://www.fabricdepot.com/index.php?page=CatalogPage&pageid=63 They also carry quite a few 60" plain cottons, including Kona. https://www.fabricdepot.com/index.php?page=CatalogPage&pageid=180 If you don't see what you want, ask... they may have it. Most of their stuff isn't on the web -- the store is 1.66 acres. And you have to sew to work the floor there. Pricing is a little strange... actual price is 70% of listed price. Kay |

Do you have a shop nearby that sells curtain fabric? Lots of it comes in
extra-wide medium-weight cotton, and you can feel it before buying. Roberta in D "Anne Rogers" schrieb im Newsbeitrag . ..

Cheers Anne I have ordered 108" wide fabric from Fabric.com ( http://www.fabric.com ) and it's very nice ANd they have a bunch that is on sale for $8.95/yd. I believe someone else has recommended Christian Lane (don't know the e-addy, sorry) and I have also gotten fabric from them which was lovely. TSWLTH (aka Joanns) also offers a few different tone on tone 90" or 108" wide fabrics. I bought some when it was on sale and it's fairly nice.
