I’m often asked where I buy all of the fabric for my sewing and crafting projects. Let me share with you my favourite online fabric shopping sources today and why I like them.
OnlineFabricStore.net
This is THE place to go if you’re looking for gorgeous home decor fabric for a reasonable shipping rate. I’ve also purchased great fabric basics here like burlap, satin and velvet. Their customer service is excellent, and their shipping to Canada is inexpensive (which is rare!). Here are some projects I’ve done with fabric purchase from OnlineFabricStore.net (click the photo to be taken to the project post):
 
 
 
 
 
 
Fabric.com
This is a great place for a huge selection of quilting cottons, home decor fabric, and fashion fabrics. I like to buy my fabrics for clothing here, along with blanket fabrics, but the shipping can be expensive to Canada. Here are some projects I’ve done with fabric purchase from Fabric.com (click the photo to be taken to the project post):
 
 
 
 
Etsy
Etsy has some great fabric sellers that carry some really unique fabrics. When I used to make a lot of baby clothes and accessories, I’d find some adorable cotton prints to buy on Etsy. Shipping options and customer service will vary depending on the seller, but I’ve had all good experiences buying fabric from Etsy so far.
Spoonflower
Want really unique fabric or want to design your own fabric? Spoonflower is the place to go! There are some beautiful and super-unique fabrics by up and coming designers here, and I’ve even made my own fabric and used it from Spoonflower. The cost is rather expensive, but you can create really unique and custom sewing projects.
So that’s it! Those are my top sources for buying fabric online. I know there are a lot of other options, but these are my favourites and the ones that I’ve had the most success with so far.
Do you have a favourite spot to buy fabric from online that I haven’t mentioned here? Let me know in the comments below so that I can check it out!

February 28, 2017 at 12:26 pmThese are some great sites but one of the fabric websites that I go to first when I am looking for fabrics wasn’t on here and I really think everyone should go check it out. The name of the site is Stash Builder Box. This site has really helped me build my stash of fabric and I absolutely love their designs. Each month I get a box and it comes with 3 yards of fabric and some supplies. Not only do they have great fabrics they also use 20% of each purchase to make and give quilts and blankets to kids who are in need of them. I think everyone should go check out this site and ever consider subscribing to their box.
