Fabric Fabric

Have been buying from this company for years. Won’t bother going anywhere else. Excellent customer service from Shawna and Sheeba. They are always there to help and the deals are superb!

They did a high quality job on some custom drapes for a good price. There was one discrepancy with my order when finished but they were eager to please and we parted ways both happy.
If you like more modern or contemporary stuff, I found it mostly in the ‘Upholstery’ aisle.

Also known to my husband and me as Scary Fabric. It’s a cavernous warehouse stacked with bolts and bolts of fabric, staffed by a coat-​wearing lady (it’s always cold in there) who screeches at her stock guy to go put that stuff away already. I think she’s awesome.
As Kat F. mentioned, they are willing to deal and they always names a price that I’m happy with. Nothing is labelled beyond the categorical overhead signs so it’s best to get Her to point you in the right direction. You are not going to find fancy designer prints here but you will always find something. You can try and find your notions here but you’d have to pick through the huge cones of thread, assorted zippers and odd-​ball rolls of velcro.
They’ve expanded into the next building with a furniture and moped division. I don’t know if it’s still «Fabric Fabric» (Scooter Scooter perhaps?) It just doesn’t make sense but it’s fun to walk through and browse.

This place could easily be called «Fabric to the power of ten» because there are at least that many bolts of fabric in the warehouse. I’m not kidding. Thousands upon thousands of choices and dozens of aisles to walk up and down. It’s like the Costco of fabric. It’s positively maddening, the selection. Go in with at least a vague idea of what you’re looking for otherwise you’ll leave bald from tearing out your hair over the decision-​making dilemma.
It’s an easily missable depot in the «Stockyards» complex at Keele/​St. Clair close to the Home Depot/​Rona/​Canadian Tire trifecta and the Staples and Sleep Comfort. You’d never happen upon it, it’s the type of place that you have to consciously embark on a pilgrimage to visit. The prices are rock solid and you can often barter with the employees because they don’t get a lot of traffic so they’re willing to part with fabric at lower prices just to create some movement.
It’s nothing beautiful or fancy but they have pretty much every type of fabric you’d ever need, including beautiful Chinese brocade, embroidery silks, jacquard, taffeta, tulle, linen and funfur. Yes, funfur. Do candy kids even still exist? PLUR, y’all.
