There once was a time when you had to truck it down to your local brick and mortar or big-box fabric store to stock up on textiles for your beautiful sewing projects but no more! There has never been a better time to shop for fabrics online, and we've happily assembled this list of online fabric stores so you can browse from the comfort of your own home.
This list is organized by country and state/region if it has a physical store. We have only included stores that have an online shop since it seems unfair to show you fabric you can't have in your hot little hands in at least a couple weeks, and while there are sooooooo many adorable quilting shops all over this continent, for the sake of sanity we only included shops that carry garment fabric. And of course, we can't help but mention our sister brand fabric store, Core Fabrics! Based in Canada and shipping internationally (we use USPS to ship super fast to US customers), CF carries a wide range of ethically and sustainably sourced fabrics in modern prints, colours, and finishes.
Without further ado, grab a hot beverage, snuggle in, and get ready to swoon. All we ask is that if you have a little secret spot where you find your gems, please share in the comments.
