1) The shop was great. It has the best range of fabrics I have seen since I have been here in Oz. I was especially looking for Australian designs and hand screenprinted fabrics and they had a really good range of those, even some that have been discontinued. They were really friendly and helpful, and they do mail order (even internationally) so I'm sure I will be shopping there again. They are hoping to get set up on the internet and get a mail order web site going.
2)Just a happy customer who loves the fantastic range of bright fabrics and can't wait for the bright flannel fabrics to come in

EDWARDSTOWN

Tricia's Discount Fabrics
Tricias has moved, she is now at 23a Lindsay St, Edwardstown,
Tel: (08) 8177 1041
Similar to DK fabrics with a bigger selection and much cheaper at $9.00 per meter for 100% cotton quilting fabrics and FQ's for $2 each. Also sells wider backing fabric and it's cheaper than DKs.
(It was funny the first time I bought fabrics from here. They had a sale on where you could buy minimum of 2 meters for $2 a meter of selected fabrics. I took them to my quilting group and it was like a frenzied shark attack. One of the ladies ended up leaving our workshop with orders from everyone else and came back with a boot (car trunk) full of fabric which was divided up amongst everyone.)
