Wtih the talk about Liberty of London (I have an apple pincushion), and stores in New York... If you're ever in San Francisco, may I suggest Britex Fabric store? Wonderful 4 story fabric store with lots of fabric for couture sewing (very little for "home decorating" or quilting). I was in awe of all the lovely woolens and silks. The staff is also very knowledgable of fine sewing ... it's been a long time since I've talked to anyone in a fabric store that actually knew how to sew, or get fabric to behave like you want. And when I found some buttons that would be "perfect" for an outfit, only to discover they were $13 each (!) which was out of my budget, they were quite pleasant in suggesting another button that was a bit less. One more small plug -- do you get the idea I had a great time? -- they speak several languages, so if english isn't your best language, someone should be able to help you in your mother tongue. Usual disclaimer ... no relationship, just a satisfied customer who's bank card is fortunate I didn't live nearer!
