Front Door Fabrics

Great experience from the moment I walked in — beautiful fabrics everywhere — Beth helped me right away and seemed to pull ideas together effortlessly. They were having a great sale as well. I’ve already been back again. Feels like family and they even have a cute little dog.

As soon as I walked in I loved how they displayed all of their beautifully colorful fabrics so it was a great first impression that this store knew their colors/​patterns and how to display them. There were about 4 workers on the floor and ALL of them were helping someone (another good sign since the store had good business) so it gave me a chance to walk the store. After I did my lap I was starting to wonder when someone would notice me when the worker on the phone came over to help.
First thing Jodi pointed out was how to find a coordinating color; teaching me that it was about drawing similar colors to coordinate rather than finding perfect matches. She did a great job of helping other customers while helping me out. Eventually, using her advice, I found a fabric and they helped me calculate how much I would need.
Being a newbie to the DIY re-​upholstering world I was filled with odd questions and they never made me feel out of place or unwelcome.
They brought out my 1.5 yd of fabric wrapped with a bow and packaged in protective plastic. While paying Jodi was EXTREMELY sweet and made me feel very comfortable.
I look forward to more projects just so I can shop here.
Oh, and prices are industry standards so you won’t find 40% deals like Joannes (which my cheap butt prefers) or anything but I was still willing to pay full price due to quality and customer service.

I don’t sew or quilt or knit, and I’m not really all that crafty. But my mother is, and she’s been talking about wanting to go here for years so I took her. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable There is a LOT of fabric to look at so we spent quite a lengthy time in there.
You cannot cut samples like other fabric stores I’ve been dragged to. Ahem … I mean other stores I’ve willingly and happily gone to. They do allow you to take home some samples but you have to return them. The samples are basically books with sheet sized pages of fabrics. We took home a book however we felt bad about keeping it out for long so we returned it next day. This is slightly inconvenient since we wanted to see the fabrics in different natural lights over a few days to see how it would look in the room we would put it in. The plus side is since you’re not taking home a swatch the size of a business card, you get a better idea of the print and how it will look. Be prepared: they photocopy your ID and take your credit card information if you do not return the books to them.
I would come back here again, only because my mother looks like a kid in a candy store and to me that was worth hours of sorting through different shades of blue fabrics.
