So with Joann going under and as a Fashion/Costume Designer and a cosplayer I need a place to get fabric and notions, and I know many others feel lost as well

So I made a short simple list of online fabric stores as well as notions .

Please share with anyone you would like. If you have recommendations of things to add please let me know.

There's only a few right now of ones I know and have used

I may add a few niche ones like Silk Baron but I am mainly adding ones with many options and maybe add a niche section later

More places with trims would be nice, or even patterns, historical, cosplay, or everyday.

Chiu Chi-ling (b. 1943), a martial arts instructor and actor, who played the Tailor from Pig Sty Alley in Kung Fu Hustle (2004).

That's right: this man was 61 years old when he kicked the Black Axe Gang's collective @$$!

Taught Huang Gar kung fu by his parents from the age of six, Chiu opened his own school in the early 1970s. He came to the attention of the Hong Kong film studios, and they came calling. Chiu started working as an actor and stuntman in 1978, and has appeared in over 70 movies since. Some of the big names he's worked with include Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and Stephen Chow.

At the same time, he still oversees his two schools - one in San Francisco, the other in Hong Kong - to ensure that his parents' Kung Fu skills are being passed on to new generations.

Thomas Jennings was a free man born in 1791 in New York City. He was 30 years old when he was granted a patent for a dry cleaning process. In his early 20s Thomas Jennings became a tailor, and later opened a dry cleaning business in the city. As a tailor. Jennings' skills were so admired that people near and far came to him to alter or custom tailor items of clothing for them. Eventually, Jennings reputation grew such that he was able to open his own store on Church street which grew into one of the largest clothing stores in New York City. While running his business Jennings developed dry-scouring. He had many customers complain of their clothes being ruined by stains and so he began experimenting with cleaners and mixtures that would remove the stains without harming the material. He earned a large amount of money as a tailor and even more with his dry scouring invention and most of the money he earned went to his abolitionist activities. In 1831, Thomas Jennings became assistant secretary for the First Annual Convention of the People of Color in Philadelphia, PA. Thomas L. Jennings Dry Scouring technique created modern day dry cleaning. Jennings was fortunate that he was a free man at the time of his invention. Besides all the other indignities and cruelties slaves had to face, they were also ineligible to hold a patent. Under the US patent laws of 1793 a person must sign an oath or declaration stating that they were a citizen of the USA. While there were, apparently, provisions through which a slave could enjoy patent protection, the ability of a slave to seek out, receive and defend a patent was unlikely. Later, in 1858, the patent office changed the laws, stating that since slaves were not citizens, they could not hold a patent. Furthermore, the court said that the slave owner, not being the true inventor could not apply for a patent either. Thomas Jennings died in New York City in 1856.

"Oh yes, Lady Terlas, executing a couple "Matoran plebeians" will CERTAINLY teach them their place and SURELY not lead to Toa at your doorstep. On a COMPLETELY unrelated note, would you be interested to see how you look in stripes?" "Sweet Mata Nui I miss Lord Atlan or Lady Sokira coming around the shop…"

There was talk on the Red Star Games Discord yesterday about what Bionicle species different people there would be. It was generally agreed that if not a Matoran, I'd be an Ihidauri (Pridak's species), on account of how fashion-focused I tend to make my MOCs.

So here he is, Arriba-dauri, a tailor that is rather done with his rich, egomaniacal clients.

Basically he's male Chiori.

“The tailor’s hound” part 6/6

A short story after the events of Baldurs Gate about Athios and Astarion, set in an AU where they both decided to step away from “what they do best” (mostly, at least) to pursue the second thing they do gracefully. Athios is a florist and deals in pigments, perfumes, and rare botanical ingredients made from his own buds. Astarion has his own small tailoring shop, which is in high demand and mysteriously only open at night.

I just want to add that every piece of clothing Athios wears is touched by Astarion's hands first, I can just imagine him being angry as hell seeing the destroyed hems of this robe and grumbling about all the other robes and suits he made for him. What he can't understand (or maybe he does) is that on one hand, Athios doesn't want to mess up the things he made for him, they're like treasures to him. And on the other, we all have a favorite "work" outfit. Let the man go and come back with his mysterious black rags. (They used to be perfectly neat, let me tell you, but Ath loves them to that extent.)
