* [http://misterzipper.com Jay Arbetman, Arbetman and Assoc.] also known as Chicago Wholesale Fabrics. 2256 West Grand, in Chicago. He represents a huge number of fabric manufacturers. Relatively low minimum order, less than ten yards in many cases. Also lots of sewing findings in addition to what Leonard Adler carries. Obviously a far better selection than the fabric chain stores, and he is often less expensive as well. But you will have to plan ahead, as most of it must be ordered. Also has PFD (prepared for dyeing) fabrics. If you are gearing up to start an Etsy shop and need fabric, this is the place to go. | * [http://misterzipper.com Jay Arbetman, Arbetman and Assoc.] also known as Chicago Wholesale Fabrics. 2256 West Grand, in Chicago.
