Absolutely love this store. Plan on spending a good hour just looking through all the material, lace, and trims they have. When I first arrived there was a super long line just to get fabric cut. I decided to shop for a while until there were only two people in line. They are really good at getting everyone through as quick as possible and had over 6 people just cutting yardage. After you get your fabric cut, you go to a second line to pay, but I only waited about 2 minutes. I guess just timed it right. HINT: they have the full price fabric up by the front door. Skip that and head to the piles of fabric towards the side and back of the store. The only thing I couldn't find there was on brand fabrics like Hello Kitty and the Nightmare Before Christmas. As if their prices weren't low enough, they have a bargain area in the back of the store with even lower prices and other specialty materials like vinyl. Plenty of parking as well. read more

Very big selection but not welcoming at all. When I asked a few employees for assistance, I was brushed off by every single one. I was looking at the quilt fabric bundles and an employee barked at me "that's $80!" in a tone that said 'if you're not going to buy it, don't touch it'. Well I did purchase, but even if I didn't, pretty rude. The only silver lining about the visit is that other patrons were very kind and willing to help. Also, prices weren't that great. Glad we checked it out though. Now we know where not to go. read more

M&L Fabrics is an absolute gem if you sew. The selection is huge and can feel overwhelming at first, but if you take your time, there's so much value here. The flat fold area especially has some hidden gems!! The staff works incredibly hard to keep everything organized and tidy, and it really shows. The fabrics are all stacked so you have to be mindful if you want something in the middle or bottom. The service is excellent. Things move fast once you're at the cutting table, so it helps to come in with an idea of how much of everything you want. Overall, the value, selection, and expertise here are unmatched. read more

Great selection and prices, but know what you're looking for. Great selection and prices, but know what you're looking for. read more

Wow, what a selection!! The service was nice and the suggestions were good imo. I'm not a huge sewer but I liked the variety and novelty of it all. I'd be back! The prices were reasonable and I found upholstery fabrics too! read more

So much selection! We were looking for a specific color of fabric for a dress and M&L fabrics had it in a number of different fabrics. Love this place! read more

My wife is on a sewing kick and I mentioned seeing some reviews about this fabric store. A few days later I found myself chauffeuring her here. It's a huge building within an older shopping plaza with a large parking lot. Setting foot inside I was overwhelmed as it was enormous; a warehouse full of organized fabrics - aisles and aisles of fabrics of all types. A back room has remnants and clearance fabrics. I walked around a bit and my wife let it be known she was going to be there for a little while (it turned out to be a LONG while). I went to get a coffee but returned at a designated time to get in a line to help her unload her chosen bolts of fabric from her cart to the cutting table. There, pieces were cut from the bolt to a specified length by one of several kind, talented women. Once done with the cutting, the fabrics, along with a handwritten invoice, are presented by the "cutter" to a cashier who takes payment. Compared to other fabric stores I thought the prices were somewhat less but not everything feels like a "discount". To steal a line from another reviewer, if you don't find your fabric here, it probably doesn't exist. read more

Incredible selection and prices! I love the vast array of options and natural fibers. It's great seeing how busy it gets here because I know I can always keep coming back. The staff are not always helpful but there are some lovely ladies at the counter. read more

Love this shop! Soooo many fabrics and staff is super helpful & friendly! A must for you talented peeps!

I came here a few weeks ago looking for fabric for a dress pattern I found online (Mood's Poppy dress). My first impression was that this place was huge! There were so many aisles to go through, you could spend a whole day in here if you wanted to. There are some $2.98/yd clearance fabrics by the cashier, but I ended up in the $3.98/yd section, and there were so many designs to choose from. There's plenty of parking, and the people at the counter were pretty helpful. Once you pay at the end of the counter, they'll hand you your cut fabric. I'm ready for my summer sewing project! read more

M & L Fabrics-Discount Store - Picked these two fabrics. I'll be back for more! - Fabric Stores Near Me - Anaheim, California

Overwhelming experience with too many choices, especially if you're shopping for fabrics! This is my "GO-TO" for all sewing needs. Can get busy with long lines. Knowledgeable & pleasant employees. Lots of parking in front. read more

Had to wait for them to reopen after the forced evacuation- came on a Saturday to find the store packed with shoppers! Needed to buy backing fabric for a quilt and after looking at the flat folds and fabrics on bolts found two that would work! Great shop has such a variety of fabrics for quilting, garments and home decor. And all the notions needed to transform them into your vision- loved the flat folds rows stacked high with batiks of flannels or quilting cottons or knits or home decor fabrics and steep discounted prices. Even my friend who buys fabric wholesale said these are the lowest prices she's seen! Plenty of staff available to help you locate a particular type of fabric or fabric company - they carry most all (moda, Alexander Henry, Riley Blake etc.!) happy shopping! read more

There's a huge variety of fabrics. Unfortunately, it's hard to figure out how they're organized and the store only seems to staff at the checkout. The fabrics seemed reasonably priced and I did eventually find something that worked well for my project. If you shop here, you have to allow plenty of time to hunt. read more

This is the BEST fabric store in Southern California!!!! Family owned so the service is top notch. Great price for all things fabric and notions. It's worth the trip. Make sure you have lots of time as this store is huge!!! read more

OMG WHEN I TELL YOU I WAS EXCITED, I'M NOT LYING! I used to go to Jenny's Fabrics a lot during the pandemic (and after) and I was devastated when it closed. I only recently found out that this is the sister location and JENNY IS IN FACT HERE! This store is much bigger than Jenny's, so if you spent about an hour before, prepare to spend a few more here. The pricing is only a bit higher as time goes on, but I'm so excited to browse all the fabrics like I did before. Instead of the back wall with the folded fabric, there are ASLES of folded fabric organized by brand and seasonal ones. Everything here is still affordable and you even get discontinued designer items for an insane discount! Now...I kind of went crazy on my last spree, but that was only because the March special was to spend at least $100 and get a $20 coupon that expires in April. Girl math is obviously do that! I spend about 2 hours browsing and debating fabrics to get...and surprisingly enough, I even put back like 10 folds The lady that help me cut the fabric was super patient and very helpful. I mentioned that I also wanted batting and she went to look for the person that cuts it for me. I was also surprised that THE Jenny was at the register to check me out. She was very nice and patient as well. Although I do miss only driving 8 minutes to get fabric, I'm glad that I can go to the sister location within 30 minutes from me. M & L doesn't seem too far for me compare to L.A. and especially since Joann's is closing, I definitely will be coming back here. read more

This seems to be one of my fav places to go to! I try hard not to come as often bc I spend $$$$ like I'm rich. Lol but, it's nice that I have this store to go to since there aren't many fabric shops around anywhere I live. Their variety is endless. I can get lost searching for amazing fabric to use for a current or future projects. The workers are also super friendly and helpful with any questions. As a first timer I had no idea what the process is.. I'm new to sewing so buying fabric seemed overwhelming at first but I'm glad I have friends to guide me (or to tell me yes or not to certain fabrics lol). Pick your fabric, decide the length/yardage, get in line to get cut, and pay at the register with your cut fabric. So easy! The ladies cutting are so fast. See you ladies on my birthday, holidays, or whenever I get extra $$$ lol thanks read more

Who needs Disneyland when M&L exists?? This place reminds me of my childhood, when fabric stores were not as rare as they are now. They have so many fun and unique fabrics, and everything you need for all your projects. read more

I am new to the upcycle/OOAK biz and this was my first stop. I will first say I LOVE the selection. I got lost in here. I spent so much time touching and skimming through materials that were beautiful and greatly priced. The store is well organized and sorted well but fabric material, colors, themes, and patterns. The service left much to be desired. I couldn't tell who worked there. No one greeted me or asked if I needed help throughout the 45 mins. to an hour I was there. As stated earlier, I'm new to this so I had questions but really didn't know who to ask. I didn't see any name tags, vests, or other employee identifiable items. It wasn't very busy. I didn't even see anyone at the cutting/cashier area. There are tables throughout so I couldn't tell if people were cutting fabrics themselves or if they were actual workers. All in all though I had a good time just checking out the store. read more

Had a good range of fabrics. There was a really foul smell in there though which was kind of off putting. read more

Variety, good product and clean. Nicely organized with all loose yardage rapped up on bolts. Signage not very well displayed

This place is a treasure. I have to travel a bit far but it is worth it. I love the selection and the prices are reasonable. It is overwhelming how much and how many types of fabrics they have from oil cloth to windbreaker material to the typical cotton or minkee. I will be going back repeatedly to gather fabric for my projects. So glad it exists!!! read more

Had a great time perusing this store - a seamstress' playground. We were able to find the exact materials (and enough bolts) for our project. We will be back! read more

They were closed during opening hours with no notice. Drove from very far to get here

Great selection to the point of overwhelm! Take the time to stroll each aisle. The flat folds are a super great value and there are literally thousands to choose from. They carry some modern lines like RSS and some classic lines like Tilda. I'd love to see them being in more Free Spirit and AGF. I've seen complaints about the staff but in my experience, if you're kind and appreciative of them, they reciprocate. They're fast, they get through the lines quickly and they're generous in their cuts. It's worth the trip for me from Riverside. read more

They the best selection of printed cotton fabric. Well worth the drive!! The employees are helpful and you should check out the back room near the restroom. read more

I walked into the store at 4:57. Not realizing when I took an hour to get to the store that it closes at 5, regardless. The lady at the register yelled " wear closed" in a rude tone and loudness so I asked, can I just look around for 3 minutes?And she says , "NO you gotta get outta here" with improper grammar and the rudeness of what she said to me and she was incorrect and the fact that they were technically still open. close? which they shouldn't be closed for another 3 minutes, correct, and I was like, can I please just look around for 3 minutes and we're finding I just want to see what you have and they said, no, "you gotta get out of here". What "no , you gotta get out of here". How rude is that and technically the store was still open for 3 minutes according to the close at 5pm sign and on yelp see picture attached from after I downloaded yelp to write the ugly review. read more

Sometimes, you just don't feel like going up to the fashion district. This place has a lot of selection for apparel and quilting, and the prices are fair. It's a little skimpy on the notions, and there's no easy way to browse patterns, but the fabric selection makes up for it. read more
