Dallas Fabric Warehouse

[Kym Kilcrease]

Just wondering if anyone knows of a place in Dallas to get Fabric that I can make backdrops with.... There was a thread a few days back that was talking about a place but I have not been able to find it again.... I am going to Dallas for Texas School and want to purchase some items while I am there!

The only one I can remember the name of is Golden D'or, but there there are several warehouses in the fabric district, down off Harry Hines, just south of Walnut Hill.

A couple of the big ones are ON Harry Hines, and the others are on a side street that runs kind of between the big ones.

I wish I could be more specific, but it's one of those "I know how to get there, but can't tell you exactly how I did it" deals....

Good luck! :)

You will need a double width bolt though.

Why do I know stuff like this? Somebody revoke my man card

Depends upon the size of the backdrop you are making. AND if you can put a seam down the middle.
8 Yards is a 10ftx9 backdrop. watch your patterns and the direction they are running.

I use Childress Fabrics, one in Dallas and one in Frisco. And I agree with manly Swatters about a double bolt, plus ask them to wrap it on a cardboard tube for future storage.

Scott, the few times we have been around each other, I would say your man card is for sure intact

Now what kind of nut do you need for that double wide bolt to hold it on?

Ive been thinking of going to the places Paul mentioned in this thread. I wasnt going for backgrounds, although that's a great idea. Ill for sure check those and the place Janice mentioned too.

There's an upholstery/fabric place right across the street from the Pilgrim's Pride slaughter and processing plant in Dallas. (Double bonus, you can buy chicken AND fabric in bulk, all in one trip.) I think it's off S. Good Latimer and is the Childress location that someone mentioned earlier.
