I fell for Liberty fabric a while back. one of those kinds of fabrics that doesn’t catch your eye immediately, but after consideration, you start thinking of tons of applications for them. the ebay source mentioned has a wide selection. You might also check out the International Fabric Collection.
http://www.intfab.com

I have not ordered from them, but they are based in PA and have a wide selection, including Japanese, French, and Dutch prints.

to digress, the fabrics from Holland are really interesting for those of us who are fabric nuts…see for instance:

There’s not too many places which either sell Liberty online or in real life, and I believe it’s not really sold in the US at all (I read that on another blog, so forgive me if it’s incorrect). They do guard their agent rights quite fiercely. It’s also an expensive fabric - but the quality is exceptional. In Australia I pay around $40aus a metre from Patchwork On Central in Melbourne, and about 18pounds a metre in the UK direct from Liberty’s store at Oxford Circus. I’ve struggled to find decent suppliers online, so usually reseve my buying for when I am able to do so in person. If anyone knows of any other links, please post them here! However the following is the only person I’ve come across with a decent selection (although it doesn’t have the most recent collections).

Some others culled off another blog but on quick glance a fairly disaparate selection of the cottons:

I’m pretty new to “blogging” so bear with me. I am trying to post my link for the competition. When I sign in, it goes to my profile. Is that where I post the link??

I absolutley second everything you say about Liberty…I REALLY am in love with that store, and think it will be a lifelong affair too! It is just so beautiful and wonderful, inside and out…and I really think it is one of the wonders of the modern world ;)…so glad you posted about it! xx
