In Kansas City last week, we stumbled on a great idea: a resale store for fabric and notions! It’s called Fabric Recycles. It’s full of rolls of fabric, notions, thread, books, patterns, and all kinds of other sewing and crafting bits and pieces from real vintage to practically new.

I could have spent quite a while there; digging through odds and ends for that special something is the kind of shopping I really like, like a treasure hunt. The fabric isn’t labeled for content, so you will have to do your own burn testing if you want to find out what’s in it. If you are in the area, I would definitely stop by, you might find a gem. I also think this is idea worth trying in more than one place. It works for books and music . . .
