Hi there! I am often asked if I can recommend places to purchase fabric or hardware etc. and, naturally, I recommend a few that I know of and use on a regular basis. However, I am aware that there are MANY more great businesses out there so, over a series of posts in my patterns group on Facebook, I asked all my wonderful members to give their suggestions and recommendations.
