Doll Dressmaking Series: My Favorite Suppliers

December 31, 2015 Lisa Press
Doll Dressmaking Supplies

I am frequently asked where I buy supplies for doll dressmaking. Although I buy from a wide range of places, I thought I'd share a few of my favorites. Some day I'll make a comprehensive list.

There are SOOO many great fabrics out there and so many great places to buy fabric.

I frequently shop at Hawthorne Threads, they have a great selection and ship almost immediately.

Fabricworm also has a great selection and often have sales.

For Liberty or other heirloom quality fabric and amazing customer service, Farmhouse Fabrics.

I also love Harts Fabrics. They have a nice selection of cotton knits.

For a discontinued fabric, which I somehow find myself needing frequently, Etsy and Quiltshops searches often find what I want.

For basics with a bit of a discount, Fabric.com

Where to buy doll trim

For trims:

I buy my trims by the roll which is why I love Create For Less. 

For those buying by the yard: Farmhouse Fabrics has a great selection. Also check their ribbon section.

Doll buttons

For buttons, I like eBay. The button hunting on eBay is so fun, the variety is a bit overwhelming.

And for snaps, I suggest Create for Less, they have a huge variety and offer bulk discounts.
