Beautiful Textiles (www.BeautifulTextiles.com)
Owned by one of our members, Darcy Lewis, this online fabric store specializes in unique, high-end, fabrics and trims at reasonable prices. It carries a full array of wools and silks from Italy, embroidered silks from India, adorable cotton prints from Japan, knits from Europe, digital-print linens, and so much more! They also carry some wonderful trims, including faux snakeskin piping, faux leather-backed colorful woven strapping and beautiful, soft, jersey seam binding – all from France.
While her store is online-only, Darcy will bring orders from NTGM members to the next meeting for pickup or you can have it shipped. Please specify what you prefer (Ship/NTGM) in the ORDER NOTES field when you place your order. NTGM members are always welcome to contact Darcy before the monthly meeting if there is something in particular you would like to see, and she will bring that.
Darcy can be contacted directly at: BeautifulTextilesOnline@gmail.com
