    Where or what is your favorite place to order quality fabric from?
    Tried the search and didn't get too many results...
    Am looking to find a few reliable sources for quilting fabric and backings.
    Thanks,
    Kirsten

    I buy most of my fabric from Connecting Threads. I like their thread too. My machine likes it so I like it. Every Wednesday there is a web special and sometimes there is fabric for $3 a yard or less. That's when I buy for backing. The fabric is very nice. I have never had a problem ordering online but you can call in an order and request a free catalog. Keepsakes Quilting has great buys on fat quarters. I bought 100 fat quarters for $99 with free shipping. Everyone was different fabric. Quilt in a Day has great sales and excellent customer service too. Bayside Quilting has blow out sales often, one going on right now. I buy most of my quilting tools from I Have A Notion. She has the best prices on high end tools.

    I like eQuilter, Fabric Depot and Hancock's of Paducah. I have never had any problems with them. Delivery has always been prompt and accurate.

    Thousands of Bolts, but be prepared to sit at your computer for a couple of hours to look at all the fabric choices. Great prices too. The only thing is you can only buy in whole yard increments unless you go to the pages for fat quarters and short cuts which is kind of a misnomer because they don't actually cut they just give you the option to buy what they have left from a bolt that is less then a whole yard.

    I like the wishlist feature where you can put your selections in a holding area and view them next to each other.

    here is a link:

    Charmspack plus is one of my newest favorites. I also like Connecting threads, Keepsake quilting, Handcock's of Paducah. I also shop on ebay.

    KO24, try www.fabricdepot.com. They are located in Portland, Oregon and have a huge selection of good quality fabric. They carry all the name brand that you find in all the quilt shops.

    all name brand and good quality. Takes awhile to get thru it cause there are so many pages.
