You should also try looking at Interior Fabrics on 1960.

Greetings, all!

I have a question I hope someone can answer for me. 
I'm hunting down fabric shops in the area, and have
some more questions.

Is there a cheaper fabric store in the city than
either High Fashion Fabrics or Universal Fabric? I'm
seeing things 4 to 8 times more expensive than what
I've seen them cost in Dallas and Minneapolis, and
NYC, now that I think about it. I'm shopping for a
show and am aghast at the prices. We're talking
exactly the same fabrics. It's crazy. I can't force
myself to actually buy from them. I'm not shy about
spending money on fabric, but I don't want to waste
other peoples' money, either. 

I've been to the sari shops (which I loved), and have
found some things there, but I really need to find a
fabric store with __sane__ pricing for fashion fabrics
such as solids of silk georgette, tafetta, cut
velvets, burnout velvets, silk 4 ply, and the like. 
I've also been to Glicks, which was disappointing, and
to the standard Hancock's/Jo-Ann/Hobby Lobby stuff. 

So I guess I'm asking two things:
Is there an alternative I'm not aware of?
and
Is anybody planning a quick trip to the Dallas fabric
district any time in the next three weekends? I'm
willing to carpool/share hotels/etc.
(But not next weekend--almost forgot)

Thanks! I really appreciate any advice I can get. 


Caitlin/Jenny
