Most of my supplies I buy from amazon, etsy or Joanns. I like the idea of reusing pieces from existing items. I might have to reconsider donating a few items now :)
I’m just beginning to sew for 18" dolls for our granddaughters, so I don’t have a go-to place although the comments are very helpful! So far, I’ve found Goodwill and Salvation Army to be good places to find knit tops with cute patterns to use for me to make doll shirts.
I have a hard time finding all notions for doll clothes as we have no fabric store in our town. Walmart has fat quarters for quilting in small prints.
I shop for most of my doll notions, accessories and material at Joann’s Craft and Fabric Stores and Hobby Lobby.
I have the hardest time finding red lace binding to on the hems of party dresses. I have had to use red trim ribbon on some items. Shoes are hard to find if looking for a special color and style.
This is a wonderful hobby but I really wish that there was a place that we could find all the things that we need to make our projects as they look in the pattern, and to be able to follow each and every step to the letter.
