   Unfortunately you would have better luck in Portland, OR ... as fabrics stores have been closing in the Puget Sound Area.

   You might try Pacific Fabrics. A local fabric chain with a store in Bremerton. I know its Northgate store has a good collection of bridal fabrics.

   This webpage lists several quilt fabric stores in Washington:

   Unfortunately I don't think Famous Labels Fabrics is still in Tacoma (they have a store in Tukwila near Southcenter). But since Tacoma is the largest city of the ones you listed you might try checking the phone book when you get there.

   *It's still a good hour's drive (maybe more) north from where you'll be, but Victoria's Bridal [ http://www.customweddinggown.com/ ]in Edmonds is a shop that makes custom bridal/formal dresses and I understand that they have opened a shop for bridal fabrics. I'd suggest you call them to double check before making such a long drive. I live in Seattle so know the shops here (1/2 hour north of Tacoma) best: Satin Rose in Kirkland [(425) 822-7507] has wonderful fabrics including gorgeous bridal materials, although it's a pretty small shop, so there's not a ton of choice. In my opinion, the best shop in Seattle is Nancy's Sewing Basket [{206) 282-9112]. They have managed to pack their small store with tons of fabrics, including some truly fantastic bridal/formal choices.
