14 Places To Score Sewing Supplies On The Cheap

GARAGE SALES

While garage and yard sales may not be an everyday thing, you can find one by searching online. Do a quick search through Craigslist and Freecycle to find the most convenient locations. Always be careful of buying yarn, as old yarn tends to fray and snap.

THRIFT STORES

Thrift stores are excellent places for sourcing affordable sewing materials. Check the boxes under the tables at the linen section, and have a good rummage for items that can be repurposed, such as vintage napkins, scarves, items with funky buttons or features. Be creative!

SENIOR CENTER SALES

This is another great place for finding unique things to repurpose. Think of all the unique things you can find to use on your next project.

BIG BOX STORES

Also, remember that stores like Hobby Lobby and Walmart normally have great deals on sewing materials and fabrics.

HAND ME DOWNS

Keep on the lookout for friends who used to sew and don't anymore. They may be willing to sell off, or even give you their supplies.

FABRIC SWAPS

It may be fun to join a group of people who share your interests. In addition, you can find great items, while cleaning out your stash. It's a win-win situation!

Then there is the internet; a veritable treasure trove for finding, bargains.
