Shipping to Canada
I wrote down all the online shops suggested in a previous post. But I was wondering about the shipping, taxes, duty to Canada. Any Canadian quilters out there with suggestions, opinions? I am looking for cafe/coffee type fabric for curtains.

Have you tried Hamels fabric, sew sisters, mad about patchwork these are canadian sites. US sites like fabric.com, Fabric depot, When I go to the sites I always check shipping first.

Just returned from BC. My brother lives close enough to Hamels that I can walk to the store. They didn't have the fabric I was looking for but love the shop, shop there every time I go to Chilliwack.

Have had many successful shipments from the US. The 'gotcha' is usually brokerage/customs fees. Shipping USPS is often the most efficient - shipping UPS or other couriers often results in huge extra fees. So if the vendor offers a choice, I opt for USPS.

I've only twice ordered from the US. fabric.com was quick..the shipping charge was $16+ but it was the only place I could find it, so was willing to pay for it, and the fabric cost was reasonable. There was no additional duty charges, but I think I had ordered 4 yards of fleece, so if you had a huge order it might get into custom charges.
