I love getting packages in the mail for me. Connecting Threads, Missouri Star Quilt, Craftsy, and Fat Quarter Shop, and Nancy Notions are my usual shops. I trust them and all have great customer service and reasonable pricing. I will order from other websites if there is something specific I want. I shop at Marshall's in person! Just two hours away from me.

I am not sure which is my favorite, it all depends on who has what I want or need at the time. |
I just got a bunch of batiks from Hancock of Paducah, brand name for $4.99 to $6.99. The only local store (sells DSM & vacuums) that carries batiks charges $15.99 a yard. I also like buying from the Fabric Shack.

Yes, very much so and I mostly shop at Connecting Threads for my fabrics as well as my threads. Just counted my threads and have over 400 of them. Guess I like their threads too. Love their fabrics and try to get most of their collections. Love their Mirage collection as its a nice blender fabric.

Yay, fabric deliveries!
My most recent was some Batik layer cakes I bought from Hancock's of Paducah for about half-off. Unfortunately they sent me pink/purple layer cake packs instead of the black/grey ones I'd ordered, and naturally I needed to return the wrong ones while it was quilt week in Paducah so it took forever. So note to self; don't order from them in late March/early April, because if there's a problem it's going to take 3 days for them to even reply! (They did send me the correct items and I shipped back the wrong ones on their dime, so I'm happy.) |
Definitely! My faves are FabricShack, Hawthorne Threadsa, Equilter and fabric.store for linen fabric. I also wear new shoes home from the store
|
I order mostly from Amazon. Most of the fabric comes from fabric.com. I love it when there's a box on the porch!
|
I have only ever ordered fabric from Connecting Threads. I am getting an order ready now and the excitement of new fabric is great! It is kind of scary how much we quilters get our thrills from "petting" the fabric.....LOL.
|
Oh yes, It is like Christmas for me no matter what time of year! Love it. Hancocks of Paducah is my favorite on line shop for the sales. And when I get their catalog in the mail, or any quilting catalog or mag, my DH tells me I got some "quilt porn". LOL

You need to try 1000 of Bolts. They have their batiks on sale for $5.99. I love getting "presents" to myself, be they fabric or notions. For notions, I usually go to Amazon.com, unless one of the sites has a superspecial deal on something I just "have to" try. I like ordering from Missouri Star, especially their Daily Deal, and I can always find something else. I like the Craftsy kits, because you see the fabrics right there and know what you're getting. And, as stated above, I get my batiks from 1000 of Bolts. |
