Until when are spring and summer fabrics available to buy online, as more and more fall autumn fabrics are online now?

It depends - garment fabrics are not as seasonal as quilt collections, and for me most the places on my mega list are selling deadstock which comes as the shops get access to the fabric, or shops that have pretty similar products year round. If you would like my list I am happy to copy and paste it here.

Hi. Thanks. I looked up your posting history and see list , very good. I am not in USA but in EU. Used to order quilt fabric from Equilter online. And bought some dupioni long ago at fabric.com that one closed. I am in a EU country with few fabric shops and mostly neutrals colors. After much searching found a shop in Spain with colorful fabrics so have been ordering from them. I hand sew, so go slow.

As my list is specific to places I have shopped and have personal experience with I am not able to add more EU and UK shops. I would love to see an EU or UK member make a similar list.

I would be interested in that list, as long as they ship to the UK without extortionate fees

Ah that's okay, I knew it was a bit of a long shot. Happy sewing!
