Fabricland

I make and design swimwear so i am in constant need for supplies. The service there is only so so … I would recomend going on a day when the whole sore is 50−70% off. If you are looking for lycra fabric you wont find it at fabricland… i recommend renas for fabric and fabricland for supplies (ie: needles, thread, etc.)

If you’re planning a wedding, or decorating a home, and plan on doing anything yourself, please visit Fabricland. We have made several visits to Fabricland for a few reasons. First off, trying to get drapes as pre-​made options are tough to find for our unusually large bonus room windows. Secondly, we are planning a wedding and everything from backdrops to linen can start at Fabricland. Third, and most important, I need to get material to build my 150″ projection screen.
When you first enter Fabricland, you will be overwhelmed with the vast selection of material and designs. Don’t be alarmed though, just don’t plan on it being a short visit unless you know exactly what you’re looking for. And with a lot of very unpleasant and questionable designs, if nothing else it makes for an entertaining hour.
The only issue we ran into was with the service. You really need to seek someone out for assistance. For almost all of our visits, we were never asked if we needed help despite being there for a while. But I suppose most people know what they are doing, so it may make sense for most customers. Unfortunately, we usually don’t have any idea and could use the help.

Let’s get one thing straight. I don’t sew clothes. I’m not a seamstress. I can sew simple things like panels, bracelets and anything that mostly means straight lines. But don’t let my Simpleton-​Sally-​Sewing ways fool you! I’m creative and so I need fabric for projects here and there so I qualify to say this.
Fabricland is terrific.
Their discount section is awesome for your low-​budget needs. There are literally 100’s of bolts that are $ 5/​metre or less and some are really beautiful. Upon moving into my condo, I needed to sew sunshades for my patio and some panels for my bedroom to hide my bane, a red wall! I was unemployed, er, working-​challenged and needed to keep my costs down. I love to peruse the fabrics, mixing and matching. It’s really pleasant and I find more then a few things to choose from
Those of you lucky enough to be sewing-​talented will be happy with selection. Cotton and broadcloth in every colour and pattern, jean fabric, satin, silk, jacquard, brocade, nylon, weather-​resistant outdoor fabrics, linen… sheesh, I sound like I know what i’m talking about.
For $ 10 or $ 15 I got the yearly sewing membership which entitles me to 20−50% off at any given time and they often have amazing sales. Totally worth it. Sew on my friends… sew on.
