Sarvi replied to the topic Tips for fabric shopping in New York in the forum off topic 10 years ago

Another bump — any last minute tips? I’m wondering what I might be able to get in NY that I can’t get in LA. My stash is really bursting and I just don’t think I can justify buying unless it’s a case of missing a unique opportunity.
