   See the attached list that I got from somewhere some time ago.  I think I may have enhanced it but can't be sure.  If you have any questions just set them out here or email me directly.  Hope it helps.  Z

   The intro about each store will be helpful!!

   I live in NYC and if you've got the time (and the energy) I'd begin on Seventh Avenue and about 37th Street and walk west on 37th Street to Eighth Avenue then walk to 38th Street and walk east down 38th Street back to Seventh Avenue and continue to 40th Street.  There are fabric (and notion) shops on both sides of the streets and some of the smaller shops (my favorites are on 39th Street) carry unusual and lower priced fabrics.

   I'm lucky my husband says he will fabric shop 1 day with me! And my niece works in the garment district.
   Thank you for your wonderful suggestion!

   I'm so glad that you had a productive trip were able to get to those stores!  Now you've probably got a lot of sewing to do!

   I am back and have lots of fabric and trim. I loved your attachment!!
   Some stores have moved to make room for the new Times Blg. on 40th St. Some have changed their names but I found most all I was looking for in your list!! Thanks for the tip on not getting the bolt out!!!! And I was able to get a decent price not the one marked on the bolt!!
   Thank You very much!! Next time I will take a cart or something to cark fabric in so my husband won't have to carry it all day.
   Thanks
