This was posted a couple months ago.

Just a small word of advice, there are tons of threads on this forum and if you do some looking around you are sure to find something you are looking for.

actually, if you had read any of the other threads in this forum about fabrics or preferred fabrics or whatever, there is a very very very good chance that fieldsfabrics.com, the web site from which all the stitchers I personally know get their facile, would have been mentioned.

If you're hardcore like me and a select few stitchers out there, you go fabric shopping at your local fabric stores. 8)

... and if you're mediumcore like me, you pay the hardcore stitchers for a portion of the good stuff they find. ;)

Thanks, hardcore stitchers like Waylon and Brian!

lol matt! i love the term medium-core. It helps that Waylon and I are close to big cities with fabric stores, SF and NYC.
It's all about hooking up others in our small community of stitchers :)

Word.

Come down to NYC, and I can definitely hook people up with amaretta, facile, and maybe some microsuede if I can find it. A little bit of searching is all it takes!

im actually interested in becoming a stitcher to, what are good practice fabrics to use? just to get down a tight design and getting used to making em, cuz frankly, i love using a million different bags, and am always craving a new bag, so making and selling them would be totally cool to do

i could call em pain-bags lol
