Sewing Friends:

Is shopping for sewing, quilting and craft supplies a real hassle for you?  Can’t always find what you need or have in mind?

My neighbor recently made me aware that not everyone knows that you can shop online for a lot of your sewing, quilting and craft needs.  You don’t have to fight the traffic or take the time to stand in line for service.  Not anymore!

Notice the right side of my blog.  In the green sidebar, you’ll see a few of my favorite places to shop online.  Just click on any of the links or icons and visit the sites to check them out for yourself. 

Have all your sewing, quilting and craft supplies delivered right to your door.  This surely saves you a lot of time especially in the busy holiday season that is almost upon us.  Just click on any of the links or icons for the details.

If you shop at Jo-Ann Fabric Stores for a lot of your sewing accessories, notions, crafting and quilting supplies, did you know that you can shop online and get free shipping, too?  Just click here:  shop at joann.com  It’s that easy!

It’s a lot better than driving all the way to the store only to find out they are out of the zipper color or size that you need.  Then, do you drive in the other direction to another store to see if they have it? Ugh!  How frustrating is that?  I’ve done that, but I quit - saves my temper and gasoline and my husband is a lot happier.

I also shop online at Clotilde.com. To visit Clotilde.com for all your sewing needs. Click here for Clotilde!   You might be familiar with her catalog.  She offers sewing, quilting and craft supplies, too, plus a  lot of hard-to-find notions.  Clotilde has been around for a long time.  I’ve done business with her for many years.  Lots of good stuff there.

Looking for some good sewing books to give as gifts?  Check out my recommended list at the side.  Of course, I included mine, too.   Why not?

I buy a lot of craft and sewing books and magazines from Amazon.com.  Enter what you are looking for in the search box ad at the side of my page.  How about a gift card for the grandkids?  They’ll love it. 

Everyone loves Christmas crafts and craft gifts.  Get some craft kits for the kids for Christmas.  See Create For Less.  Save up to 70% off closeout craft supplies at the CreateForLess Clearance Sale. Quantities are limited - shop today! Awesome!

I can usually find whatever fabric I want at DenverFabrics.com
Get fabric for fashion, dancewear, costumes, rug hooking, crafts and home decor. Many silk, wool, and linen designer fabrics. Prices often at or below wholesale fabric pricing. Also sewing notions, trims, books and patterns at discount prices.
(see their ad at the side)

or Fabric.com.   Check out this link for coupons and free shipping and a ton of great fabrics.   Fabric.com Coupon Corner   They offer wholesale prices to the public. 

It is so easy to fill my sewing needs.  It is almost too easy.  I always sew much faster in my mind than I do in reality.  Thus, my stash and sewing patterns keep growing!

And, then, when you want to check out a lot of different sewing machines, embroidery machines, sergers, quilting machines, and lots of other sewing stuff, go to All-Brands.com and look around. You’ll be drooling in no time.

Well, I have to tell you that my neighbor did order some crafts online and she was really amazed how easy it was to do and how fast her order came.  She is definitely hooked now.  Her husband isn’t sure if this is a blessing (since he doesn’t have to drive her around anymore) or if it is a curse.  Time will tell.

Have fun shopping online!

To Your Sewing Success,

Marian
