A Fabric Place

I had a great experience here even though the inventory is lacking a bit. The owner is very accommodating and goes out if his way to make sure you have what you need. Since I live in PG county I won’t be making a special trip to go here again, but if I were a Baltimore county resident I would come back for sure.

Very enthusiastic staff, even at 8pm! They gave me just enough ideas for Halloween and made sure it was in my budget.

It has a vast selection of fabrics. In fact, mens cotton shirting was well represented, as well as suiting wools. Just having 4 or 5 bolts would be amazing, but having 30+ was shocking. Fashion fabric is their focus, not crafts nor home décor.
I didn’t find what I wanted, but will stop by again when in the area. Its kind of a jumble of fabric, and you have to dig to find things. The photos on this Unilocal website make me giggle. The merchandise is not this organized. Not even close.

How awesome was this place and everyone that works there! I will be going back again and again! The staff are so helpful and full of information :) lots of fabrics to choose from too!

Loves love love! Michael is great and handles very high end fabrics including Gucci, Chanel, and Burberry. I purchased some beautiful Alpaca for a coat. The have a good quality of suitings up to the 200s and good quality woolens. I think the back room for the notions is a bit dated but I am sure people are not visiting the store for that. I love going here!

I feel bad giving this place 2 stars without even stepping in the door. But that’s what happens when you don’t update your website.
I checked the website yesterday before I went there to get fabric to cover my throw pillows, the hours said it was open till 9PM. So naturally, I did all of my other errands and drove WAY out of my way to get there to find out they were closed. They had a sign on their door with «Summer Hours» stating that they closed at 5PM that day! I was furious that I took the effort to look up the hours and drove out of my way all for nothing! What a waist of my time.
I would have preferred spending my money at a mom and pop shop like this who may need my business to actually stay in business, but it looks like JoAnn Fabrics is going to be my next stop because I know their hours will be accurate.
Come on people get with the program, update your website with proper hours… probably the most important thing other than your address!

I went to a Fabric Place to get material for my wedding dress. They did not have great selection, and didn’t have very helpful staff. (The salesman got a call on his cellphone from a telemarketer and began yelling at him on the phone while he was working with us…

I’ve been shopping in this store since I was in 9^th grade (1976)! My mom used to take me to the first location down in Mt. Washington. I’ve followed them to 3 locations. They have exquisite fabrics and the prices are great! Most of all the customer service is superb! If you are a serious seamstress/​designer, you must stop by. You won’t be disappointed.

I’ve only been in there twice and I already love it. I’m still a sewing beginner, but perusing their amazing selection of fabrics and notions has given me so much inspiration for future projects. The staff is super friendly, welcoming, and most importantly, helpful. I’m pretty much in love with a room in the back that has beautiful (and colorful!) designer tweeds and boucles, though those can get a little bit pricey. And don’t get me started on their wall of glorious buttons. Knowing this place is out there makes me want to keep at my sewing so I can take advantage of more of their goods.

This was my second visit and selection was extensive and customer service was second to none!

I am a devoted supporter/​lover of this fabric store. The staff is incredibly personable and so helpful – I don’t think I’ve ever felt so welcome in a store than here. They’re so sweet and they love helping out everyone and when I was in undergrad as a Fibers major, they helped me afford my materials for several projects. Though I missed it, they even let one of my classes access to their warehouse stock and sold their discontinued or overstock wares at crazy discounted prices. I’m still kicking myself over that. And if you come at the right time and their remnants bin is overflowing, you may luck out like me and get your hands on some beautiful designer silk brocade for almost nothing.
Love the selection, love the staff – I just can’t say enough good things about this place. Lastly, here’s an example of how helpful they are: I told them I was going to Asia for a year for a project and they even offered to send me whatever I needed while I was there. I left with a thick pile of swatches for my convenience and even though I didn’t take them up on the offer, it was still extremely thoughtful of them. I’ve also been fed cupcakes while shopping here. True story.

Stumbled on this place this other day, and the buttons selection alone makes it a must go. Tucked away in the back of a strip mall, it is completely understated. But if you love fabric, you will love this place.

I love this store for what it is. The last bastion for fine sewing in the Baltimore area. Here, you can find lovely wools, silks and cottons. They even carry some tailoring items like fusible hair canvas.
There is a wide range of prices. From $ 6 a yard for a lovely Italian cotton to $ 40 a yard for a Chanel boucle.
The owners are very friendly and always ask what you’re up to. And, they are happy to work with you on prices and find alternatives when they see that ‘must have’ look on your face.
Don’t come for pattern sales — that’s what the big box stores are for.
