Well, Thanksgiving is fastly approaching and it's time to get moving to make quilts and items for Christmas presents(check out our patterns) and train layout skirts. I have put up a new children's fleece fabric with winter in mind and very limited in quantity. Check the product description for fabric availability.
The new Thomas fabric is on the web, I think the Day Out with Thomas scenic one is really cute, however it has really flown out, and all I have left is a 20" piece under Thomas the Tank Engine pieces. I have another bolt coming Thursday Nov. 20 or Friday Nov. 21, 4 yards of that is presently spoken for by customers from this past weekend. I hope to get a 15 yard bolt but it could be 12. The sad part is I can no longer re-order it. The Day out with Thomas ticket ones are nice too.
Check out our train gifts!
A word about the older Thomas fabrics(circles & tracks), quantities are getting very low, please click on the product descriptions for availability. Also check the Thomas the Tank Engine - pieces for those with less than a yard left(such as the red circle or yellow track) or for pieces left at the end of a bolt.
Come shop for over 40 train print fabrics and lots of gifts for the railroad fanatic, big or small, in your life. So hop aboard and journey through our web site!!

PLEASE READ THE FABRIC DESCRIPTIONS!!! I try to let you know when a fabric is getting low or on re-order. Generally when I get to a bolt or less I start estimating the number of yards left. Availability can change quickly, especially after a show.
All fabric widths are selvedge to selvedge and are 100% cotton unless otherwise noted. Already quilted fabric contains 100% cotton fabric on front and back with 100% polyester batting. The designs on these fabrics run down the length of the fabric.
IMPORTANT PLEASE NOTE: At this time we can only calculate 1/2 yard increments of fabric so ALL PRICING IS PER 1/2 YARD UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. We apologize for the inconvenience but it's the way this e-commerce store front works. So if you want 2 yards put in a quantity of 4 and you will receive 2 yards in one cut. If you want 1 1/2 yards put in a quantity of 3 and you will receive 1 1/2 yards in one cut.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT BUYING FABRIC FOR A TRAIN SKIRT: The designs on these fabrics run down the length of the fabric so if you are considering ordering fabric for a train layout skirt, the width of the fabrics is approx. 44 inches selvedge to selvedge and the length is what is required for your height. So to make a train skirt the fabric must be cut to your height (plus top and bottom hem allowances if you want them) for as many pieces as needed to go around the layout and each piece must be sewn together or overlapped to display the fabric correctly. There are several fabrics that could be used for a layout without cutting call first so we can discuss which ones and fabric availability. If you have any questions please call or email first before ordering the fabric.
IF YOU ARE ORDERING MORE THAN 7 YARDS OF FABRIC PLEASE CALL OR EMAIL FIRST FOR FABRIC AVAILABILITY.
AN IMPORTANT NOTE ABUT SHIPPING: I have removed USPS first class mail as a shipping option because people were choosing this when it was not appropriate for the weight of the items they were buying. The USPS only allows you to ship up to and including 13 ounces this way, this would be a pattern or up to about 1 1/2 yards of regular fabric and 2-2 1/2 yards for some of the Thomas). Anything over that has to go USPS Parcel Post or Priority mail. If you want the cheapest shipping say Cheapest shipping in the message or comments field. Please realize that USPS Parcel Post can take as long as 6 days within the continental US.
