Online shop Beklina has exclusive, limited stock fabric yardage from Brooklyn-based designer Caitlin Mociun. These silks and hand-printed fabrics would be worth the splurge — I’m not sure she is producing fashion collections any longer (jewelry seems to be the focus now) and her prints have been very influential in the contemporary surface design world.

Certainly one of the widest, if not THE widest selection of fashion fabrics online can be found at Denver Fabrics (and their alias Fashion Fabrics Club). Most are a great value, and even better if you pay attention to the Sale Alerts. I found these prints just from looking at the first couple THOUSAND selections [...]

Thai Silks is perhaps the mother lode of printed silks on the internet. They import silks from Thailand, China, Korea, and India, offering high-quality fabrics at reasonable prices.
