We found Sew Deerly Loved when we were searching for Heather Ross Munki Munki fabric. This little shop delivered in a big way. And besides running the Sew Deerly Loved Etsy shop, this busy fabric seller has six kids, quilts and writes a lovely blog: lovely little handmades.

The shop is stocked with a great selection of Japanese fabrics and quilting cottons – sold in yardage, fabric sets and bundles. You’ll also find a great deal of popular patterns. And customer feedback is 100% positive!

Tuesday Afternoon Fabric Find – Elkabee’s Fabric Paradise

May 25, 2010

There’s a lot to love about Elkabee’s Fabric Paradise.  The selection alone is out of this world – it’s large, it’s diverse, and it’s priced pleasantly.  One of our favorite features of the site is its organization: you can browse fabrics by manufacturer.  By scanning each fabric company’s selection, you can get a real feel for their individual design styles.  For instance, P & B Textiles has more novelty fabric than Free Spirit

It’s actually a neat way to learn more about where your favorite fabric comes from.

Another terrific feature: the Sale Fabrics.  The prices are right and the fabrics are often ones that you can still find hanging out at other shops for almost 30% more than what Elkabee’s Fabric Paradise is selling them for.

Take a look and make an order.
