Title: Fabric dot com is having a sale
Post by: isabelladangelo on October 04, 2010, 12:08:01 PM
Fabric dot com is having a sale again.  They have some great wool gauze (https://www.fabric.com/apparel-fashion-fabric-wool-fabric-wool-gauze-fabric.aspx) which I'm thinking Viking Apron Dress with.   The colors are a bit "eh" but wool gauze is a bit difficult to find so that makes up for it.  This is great super lightweight stuff for the faires that are in warmer months to give you a flavor of the authentic.  Make a shawl or an overdress out of it.  

They also have Dark Green Silk Shantung (https://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=f0e2b285-b717-4812-9bf6-b344e0723bf0&CategoryID=ec3787a4-51be-41c4-a00b-ae1b01efb3cf) for $1.95 a yard.  I've bought this from them before and it's well worth the price.   It's silk and it's only $1.95.  I bought another 10 yards.  :-)

I was bad
I just bought 18 yds of the silk- my reasoning- if I bought 12 I would have to pay shipping and the total was $32.
If I bought 18 yds my total was $35 and free shipping so I get 6 more yds for the same amount of money
plus I found a coupon and saved almost $6 so I paid $29.


The coupon code is ABAND2010  - it takes 15% off your total.

When I bought the silk earlier today, there were well over a 100 yards.  There is now 36.   It's going pretty fast.  I'm planning a new 'Bethan out of it.  :-)   With pink trim!

I am not in need of fabric right now (well... as such), but I do enjoy browsing through such sites and see what I possibly COULD buy... Thanks for sharing!
