- During NYC Frocktails I went fabric shopping on Jamaica Ave in Queens! I stopped by three stores and spent around $83 on 21 yards of fabric!
How to get to Jamaica Ave - Take the E or the J to Jamaica Center station and catch the Q8 or Q9 bus down to 168st and Jamaica Avenue. There are 4 fabric stores in a single block radius.

I may have to make a trip to Queens,...those fabric store are peaking my interest😏
Hi Gwen - yes, come to Queens! The directions to get there are in the description box.
Thanks for showing me these fabric stores. I have to be in Queens a lot for work but I don't have enough time to go into the Manhattan garment district. You have given me some great options.
You are so welcome! Have fun!!
Thanks, needed to hear what you said, we do the things and are happy when we can help each other in this journey…….
I'm so glad you can relate. Thanks for watching!
I enjoy your videos so much!! Thanks for taking the time to make them. You have some great finds!! The tweed is my fav!!
Thank you so much Teria!!
Shopping in Montreal is the same! Bolts are laying around everywhere and the prices are amazing. I love that Queens has options. I'll have to looks these up if I'm in NYC.
Oh Montreal sounds amazing!!! Thanks for watching!
While I love the fantasy tour in the garment/fabric/ buttons and trim. That's where I really shop!
Thats fantastic!
Hi, beautiful fabric. I am looking forward to your makes.
Thank you! 😊
I'm going to be in NYC next week, and this is great inspo!
Have fun! Thanks for watching!
I love your honesty and the tweet looked like twee to me! I love everything but the geometric prints were calling my name 😂
LOL, Thanks Deja!!
I often have to remind myself that I do not sell because of money constraints or to make items at a cheaper cost. I sew strictly based upon my size and body measurements. I’m 6ft, longer arms, 37 inch inseam, smaller waist, larger hips and broader shoulders, I’m ALL over the place with my body. It’s almost impossible to find clothes that fit me well that does not include stretch. My point is, everyone sews for different reasons. I sew so I can stay in style and have clothes that fit beautifully
Love it ❤ thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I live in Queens. I will definitely check out these stores!
Yes! I hope you find some great things!
This trip looks amazing! Never heard of NY Froctails (sorry if I’m saying it wrong). Would love to visit some of those places. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching Maxine! If you're on IG, theres always news about Frocktail events going on throughout the year.
Hey Raven...you got some beautiful pieces. I haven't been to Save a ton in years....only since the past few years I've been ordering fabric online. Listen, I don't know why everyone feels fabric needs to be $$$...when you understand fabric and it's fiber content , you know what you're paying for. Any composition can be beautiful ..it's just a matter of preference. Anywhoo, glad you had an awesome wknd...can't wait to see what you make.😊
I agree Gwen! I shop online as well, but it's not the same as finding a good bargain in person.
New subbie here!! I haven't sewd since high school, just a clothes designer in my head. Anyway thanks for sharing. I'm in long island and I will see check these stores out bc of u. Even tho I don't sew , I use fabric in my jewelry designs. Thanks again, inspiring

🎉🎉😮 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Beautiful fabrics n shop great prices wish we had places like that in S Georgia Everything is soo expensive at Joann’s 🙄🫣
Hey - I agree big box stores can be on the expensive side which is why I love the deals. Fine Fabrics in Norcross, GA has some great deals if you ever get to visit.
Sooo…… I really need all of your fabrics 🤣! I’ve gone to the district in NYC once and didn’t get a thing because I was overwhelmed. I need to go to those stores. Thanks for sharing!!

Raven, I look for bargains. It doesn't make sense to spend a fortune on fabric. A friend, and I will be traveling from Upstate New York to New York City to shop at the Saveathon in Harlem. We are looking forward to it.
I agree Vanessa! Enjoy your trip. I haven't been to the Harlem location but I'm sure it won't disappoint.
Hey Raven. It was nice meeting you at Frocktails! Love the fabric you got and it’s prices!! I should have gone shopping with you. 😊 Next time I go to NY, I’ll definitely check out those fabric stores! I love a good deal!

Fabrics are an individual choice, if you like and are happy to sew and wear, then that's OK. 💜🪻💜
Agreed! Fabric is definitely a personal choice.
