Britex Pilgrimage


I was really lucky to get to check out Britex Fabrics while in San Francisco with DH for his conference. I’m pretty sure this is my first time in their “new” shop on Post Street.

 You can see a delivery truck delivering bolts of fabric imported from Italy. I joked with them that I hoped it came in before the insane new tariffs. Who knows how much more fabric will be costing us now???

I bought 3 pieces off of the remnant rack. All in various weights of cotton or cotton blends to dye.
And in the ribbon/trim/button section I found two colors of sashiko thread and a super interesting cork “ribbon”. They had some really nice Cotton&Steel fabrics but they were pricey at $19 a yard.

And I scored a handy dandy carry bag too.
