Don't know what to make? There is no shortage of pattern inspiration and instruction for adult and children's fashions, accessories, and home dec projects from all the "big names" (Vogue, Butterick, McCalls, Burda, Quick Sew, etc.), from many indie (independent) designers (Revisions, La Fred, Amy Butler, the Sewing Workshop, Tina Givens, etc.) as well as from heirloom and vintage design companies (Bonnie Blue Designs, Folkwear, Treasures of the Past, to name a few).

I have some friends (Marilyn L. and Etta McF.) who told me about this fabulous store. They weren't exaggerating! For those who love making wearables and garments (guild friends, Cristy C., Nancy A., and Sheri S., this means you), plan a day to get lost in here because you don't want to miss any of the eye candy
Textile Fabrics has to offer.
There is ample parking—with some shady spaces due to the expressway overhead—and the staff is quite friendly and very helpful.
