Hi,

I'm wanting to make a couple of bedding sets, a toy box seat and a blanket. I have been using plush addict for the last couple of years for fabric but I usually buy FQ's as make small items (dresses, tops, taggies etc).
For the above projects I'll need bigger quantities. And it seems quite expensive.

Can anyone reccomend a good site?
I live in north London so if anyone knows of any good shops/areas I could go to that would also be helpful

Thanks

I second Fabricland. Their website is awful but they are cheap.

If you're in North London then there's plenty of bargains to be had on Goldhawk Rd & Shepherd's Bush Market. Walthamstow, specifically Wood Street market is also good if NE rather than NW London

Thanks for responses.
I used to go to walthamstow, but had heard it was sort of dying off/prices raising.

Wow at fabric land. What a site..... Prices are good!!

Shall try out goldhawk road I think aswell. Heard some good reviews!
Thanks ladies
