Order from Imagine Fabric
Anyway, I have suppliers from all over the country, and some outside US. From homebased business stores up to upscale stores who sell high-end runway fabrics. From only few $$ up to hundreds of $$ worth of orders. And I've never receive a service as great as this store.
I decided to order a couple of yards of Amy Butler's fabric just to try out this store. So I placed the order on monday and I was so surprised when it arrived in front of my door on thursday the same week. And I only paid $4.95 flat rate shipping. When I opened it, the packaging is superb! The fabrics were fold neatly and placed inside a plastic bag. And the owner sent me a super sweet email and asked if I received the order etc. Talking about service, trust me ladies, this store is the best! It really value each customer. You won't feel like you're only a number.
You really should try it out. Especially for those designers who do a lot of custom orders, it really saves you a lot of time. I remember I had to wait10 days for some fabrics to arrive from other online fabric store, and I really needed this fabric for my client, and I felt really bad for making her to wait longer for my garment.
So I totally recommend this fabric store, so just give it a try, you won't be dissapointed, guaranteed!
These are the fabrics I ordered, and I am soooo looking forward to order some more pretty soon.

You will find some of your favorite designers there like Michael Miller, Amy Butler, Joel Dewberry, and many more. Check out their new arrivals section to get your hands on the newest and hottest fabrics. Also don't forget to take a look at the sale items where you can find designer fabrics at discounted price. My favorite is the fat quarters section, I am so not good in mixing and matching fabrics, and in this section the fabrics is mixed and matched perfectly, the colors and prints really compliment each other. So if you're like me, you can't go wrong by buying the fat quarters, LOVE IT!
And the best part is the flat rate shipping, it's only $4.95 no matter how much you buy. I'm sure everybody can appreciate that in economy like this. I know I've paid over $20 in shipping at another fabric store one time. I am so looking forward to buy fabrics from this store, and you should too.
Below is just some examples of beautiful fabrics they carry:
Michael Miller - Ginger Tile Avocado
Joel Dewberry Fabric -Espresso Damask Fabric
