Nakisa Fabrics has been my go-to place for fleece for years…read more This small shop in Downtown LA specializes in fleece. Wall to wall rolls of fleece. Hundreds of designs to choose from. Most go for ONLY $2.50 a yard! If you've bought fleece elsewhere, you know this is a great deal. The specialty prints like the Hello Kitty & sports teams go for $5 a yard and up. http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Ug-Po-dacLXzziVWF6UUOw&userid=Tuq59VSdqnCmotr_910JoQ http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/nakisa-fabrics-los-angeles?select=cN09OvWp57A8kNeYKP-Htg#cN09OvWp57A8kNeYKP-Htg One year, I went crazy and made a lot of those no-sew fringed-tie blankets. Bought all my fleece from Nakisa. This fleece has held up well years later after many washings. Today's project required 9 yards of fleece. I kind of knew what I wanted. Good thing because other times I've gone, there's so much to look at, choosing the fabric took a lot of time. There's so many cute designs. While there, I noticed all the extra 1-yard scraps and couldn't resist. picking some to sew up pillow cases. http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=egDz8DDGah5lrcVlFzLgUA&userid=Tuq59VSdqnCmotr_910JoQ The guys who work here have always been so friendly. My visit today reminded me that they deserve to get the Yelp love! Sidenote: Highlight and Google "no-sew fringed-tie blankets" for images. This is a super easy project that anyone can do!

I extended my shopping trip and came back to JB Textiles (Forever Textile) a second day to see what they had I might have missed. I wasn't able to purchase anything from them this trip BUT they will always be my first stop on my monthly trips to LA because they run an exceptional business and I am bound and determined to buy from them! Even when I couldn't find what I needed at their store they told me exactly where to go to find what I needed. LOVE THEM!! I will be back!!

Shavali is THE fabric shop for cosplay fabrics in Santee. They carry a ton of different spandex…read morefabrics in 4 way and 2 way stretch and colors as well as mattes / shiny variants. They also carry lace, fur fabric, and other fabrics you can use though these others are more traditional. Please be aware they sell by the YARD minimum. This is honestly great for me as I make full body outfits that need 2-3 yards but if you're looking for smaller cuts of fabric, go elsewhere. They are currently having a sale as they are moving locations but do not currently know where they will be moving to. I spoke with an employee who noted that they will post where they will move on their Instagram page, so please check that out. The BEST part of their services is their custom printing. This is an incredible service that I honestly have not seen elsewhere in Santee Alley / Fashion District. You can use a pattern they already have and change the color OR submit your own infinite design (highly recommend photoshopping an infinitely repeating design so that you don't have random photo lines in the fabric) and they will print it onto spandex or other fabrics for you! They currently charge $12 per yard if you are doing under 50 yards but I have seen on their instagram that they will raise prices to $15 per yard under 50 yards in 2025.

Unfortunately looking for 100% linen in my area was like looking for a needle in a haystack. I was willing to drive downtown, but was not looking forward to foraging from shop to shop, never being completely sure the fabric content was what was being represented. Fortunately I came across BH Linen online and after confirming that they did have a showroom that sold to the public, I made my way there. First of all, I would never have discovered it if I hadn't known where to go first. The unassuming showroom is located on the third floor of an old building, but once I got there WOW!!! I was blown away. There were bolts and bolts of gorgeous linen in all sorts of different colors, weights and finishes. It was hard to decide. I found the gentlemen who attended me to be knowledgeable, (patient), and very helpful. I would definitely recommend them either in-person or online.

He told me "Sasha doesn't need samples, she comes in and says give me 20 yards of this and 30 yards of that." Then he kind of just shooed me off. A little funny but also hard no on returning. Sasha you are a goddess with an eye and I applaud you for making quick decisions sampless!! If you aren't like Sasha and need samples to compare and share with clients it's a bummer of an experience.

I hate to say I will be traveling here often but with no Joann fabrics we're left with downtown LA. And I'm not crazy about going downtown LA with a 85 year-old.. international silks and woolens had everything I needed and wanted if I could give them 10 stars I would. The gentleman that assisted me was extremely helpful and had knowledge on his materials..
