online apparel fabric and trim sources, a working list

Thank you for all your help and suggestions for this list! You know of so many fabric sources, and I am sure your suggestions for this list will help lots of other people to find beautiful fabrics.

In the end I decided to include only stores that sell apparel fabrics and have an eCommerce website. If I included every physical shop that doesn’t offer online sales this list would be endless — and impossible to maintain. Also, please note that this is a working list. It is incomplete, and I would love your additions to it. It’s very loosely organized, and I will work to improve it over time. Your suggestions are welcome.

To contribute, please email me at fabricsource@lieslandco.com. I can’t keep track of any comments left here or on social media because I’m simply too busy. Emails make it easier for me include all your suggestions.
