Need fabric? Not sure where to start? MoreCloth will help you out. Each colour bar will link you to swatches, then onto where to purchase on etsy.

(And if you're about to post PepsiBlue, then you clearly have never sewed. Relax and enjoy the pretty colours.)

My soon to be ex wife and the kids are into sewing. I'll have to send this on to them!

I don't sew much, but that sure is nice to look at. Maybe I should sew.

This is not PepsiBlue. This is CrafterSmack.

Wow, what a smart tool. Thanks for posting this. Even though I am not allowed to buy any more fabric at this time.

If they expand this to include the homespun yarns on etsy, I'm done for.

I'm just repeating to myself "I do not need more fabric. I do not need more fabric."

As mentioned above, some links go to fabric listings that are no longer active. (Often the seller has new active listings of the same fabric, so it's worth looking around in the seller's shop.) The links to inactive listings mostly disappear each time the MoreCloth site gets updated. I'm the the site's creator/maintainer, so I have a bird's eye view of the update process - working on it right now....
