    I like buying fabric from Toronto's the Workroom, but have drooled over Purl's website and blog. A good enough reason for me to visit NYC!

    Happy Spring Arounna!

    I have purchased from JCaroline, but I'm in the middle of nowhere (NW Minnesota). Know of any neat-o places in Winnipeg, if you ever get that far to the west? Cute bag, great for the upcoming holiday.

    Happy Easter! Your creations are always divine and so inspiring. I like to purchase my fabric from Pink Chalk Fabrics, a wonderful online shop. Kathy, the owner, is a wonderfully talented individual and her customer service is outstanding. Hope the weekend is full of wonder!

    Argh, I was going to vote Peapod Fabrics in San Francisco as well but I see someone beat me too it! Anyway, it is a wonderful place and I always walk out with much more than I intended to buy. It is a great little shop!

    A second runner up for artistic scrim, gauze and other translucent fabrics, I go to Mendels Far Out Fabrics & Art in Haight-Ashbury. http://mendels.com

    My most recent fave spot for fabric shopping is SCRAP in Portland,OR. I never know what I'll find, and the price is right.

    We don't have a wealth of fabric shops in Cape Town, but I do like buying from Twine, who print on organic hemp.
    Have a lovely long weekend.

    My all time favorite textile hunt is the fabric stalls of the labyrinthine central market in Varanasi, India. Unbelievable raw silks and printed cottons, but I'm a terrible haggler!

    I love to shop the thrift stores but also Rokko Sari and Guru Bazaar in Little India in Vancouver. Fabricana has a huge selection and often has great sales.
