I see a bad-ass mother who don't take crap off of nobody
Where do you get fabric from? Reasonable prices but cool prints? I have just started learning sewing basics and I am not sure what is good value. What etsy shops do you use also?

‘Buy the ticket, take the ride.’ Hunter S. Thompson
I'm quite new to sewing too. I've mostly bought from Etsy shops and The Fat Quarter Shop. My Etsy name is the same as here so feel free to check out my favourite shops.

I have to say the prices compared to here are incredible.

yeah i would like to order in aus but when i can buy a print for $8 jper yard and it is $25 - $30 here I have to pass....
And with coupons and shopping credits I end up with a LOT more than I would buying locally. Unfortunate but true

oh yes and google coupon codes for fabric.com if you use them. I almost always get a discount on my order which covers a nice portion of the postage original.gif

sometimes fashionable fabrics have good sales on and are worth ordering from.
