Polka Dot Anywhere

Where can I buy polka dot chiffon, rayon, organza or taffeta material? Material good for sweet girls dress?
I am trying to have my daughter a very sweet baby doll type dreess made & would like to use any color blue polka dot material that is good for a fancy dress. Cotton won’t work. Can’t seem to find it anywhere. I found 3 other colors @ Hobby Lobby but not blue/white. Any suggestions?
Try www.fabricmart.com
They have some nice pieces at discounted prices. You can also look at www.fabricclub.com. You mentioned chiffon, organza, etc…but you did not mention what type of material your were looking for…all of the above fabric types come in different fibers—for instance: there’s polyester chiffon, silk, and blends.
If you’re going to the trouble and expense to have something made then you should go for a natural fiber. Along those lines, try www.thaisilks.com—they have various types of silks at wholesale prices but they sell in small quantities to the public. Silk might sound expensive but since you’re only making a little girl’s dress which doesn’t take alot of fabric, it’s not too expensive and then it will be something that you can keep and pass down. All natural fibers are easily washable, just hang dry and an overall good choice.
If silk is a definite no-go then try lighter delicate cottons such as batiste, organdy, or lawn, they were favored choices in vintage children’s clothing—-for these fabrics I don’t have a direct link but you can research online under heirloom fabrics. There is a huge market of stores online that cater to the heirloom community(people who make clothing using old fashioned techniques and fabrics) Again you should find a good deal on the small amount that you’ll need for a child.
Offline, your resources kind of dry up depending upon what region you’re located in. I believe that Joann’s fabric is nationwide but I’m not sure about your area. Even if there is a mass fabric retailer in your area they may not have a huge selection.
If you decide not to take my advice and instead want polyester taffeta or satin, you might try your local Walmart for a small selection. They often carry a few colors in poly satin in their fabric section. Rayon is better than polyester but it is still not as good as a natural fiber and sometimes depending on the fabrication it can be as expensive or more than a natural fiber. Hope this helps!
