Buying Adorable Affordable Fabrics from your computer

 I don't sew, but that doesn't mean I can't make simple panel curtains and "no sew" valances for my new kitchen (or that my mom can help me..).  I have been on the lookout at Joanne fabrics for months looking for fabrics I can afford.  Unfortunately I have expensive taste and the fabrics I want are never under $15/yard which is way over my budget!

I have discovered discount fabric stores ONLINE!  Yippeee! I don't even have to roam the fabric aisles with my 3 little ones pulling at fabrics, crawling out of their stroller, destroying the store while I endure glares and stares from quiet customers.  What a dream come true.
I have recently visited Warehouse Fabrics Inc. and Fabric.com

The sample is almost bigger than my daughter!
Just click click click.  If you want to run it through your fingertips before committing just order a $2 sample that comes in the mail in a couple days.  Most fabrics are under $10/yard, and those are the ones I like! I can't even tell you how ecstatic I am about this.

I love this one, $9.98/yd.  I don't know about my kitchen, but it is just so cute.

Here is another at $9.98/yr

This one is $6/yd! I ordered a sample and it is amazing

This adorable pattern is an amazing $3.99/yd!!! EEEEkkkk!
 More into subtle stripes?  Snatch this one for $6.98/yard

 This one caught my eye for a baby boy room (but I am a sucker for retro baby themes)
This one is just darling for a little girl. $6.98/yd

 On Warehouse Fabrics Inc. they include a fun fabric calculator which wannabes like me desperately need!  Just pick the style of drapes and calculate how much fabric you will need.  I am having way too much fun. 

I am telling you, it gets addicting picking cute fabrics, ordering a $2 sample, then getting it in the mail.  Oh, and just to let you know I am NOT getting paid for this.  I feel I just discovered a way to shop for amazing fabrics on a budget without kids!

  2. I don't sew either, but LOVE picking out fabrics. Even my daughter knows what Hancocks is & refers to it as the 'terial store. How sad is that?

  13. I do not leave a response, however after looking at through a few of
    the responses on "Buying Adorable Affordable Fabrics from your computer".
    I do have a couple of questions for you if you don't mind. Could it be simply me or does it look as if like a few of these comments come across like they are written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are posting on additional online social sites, I'd like to follow everything new
    you have to post. Could you make a list of all of your social sites like
    your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

  17. You really make it seem so easy with your
    presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think
    I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for
    me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

  18. i have been making all my curtains with stitch witchery for a long time now...I love it! I love saying "i made those" lol Your's look great! idk if you have a walmart with a fabric dept. near you....but i find reallly nice fabric for $1 to $3 a yard on clearance! Even if I don't need it I buy it, because you can't beat that! Might try looking at their site online...their fabric is cheaper than joannes (of course not as much selection) but you'll be surprised. Anyway...I'm babbling lol Just really wanted to say great job on your curtains! Tracy C.
