   looking for good fabric

   It depends on what you are trying to make. For skirts and trousers I'd go for linen and cotton, but they crease easily.

   For tops, blouses and light jackets, silk, cotton, linen.

   Here are a few webpages

   I know this is an old topic, but I just started looking at the forums and decided to chime in. 

   I've always shopped at Exquisite Fabrics, in their former DC store and now in their Virginia store.  They have a website now so  you can order online. http://www.exqfabrics.com.  They've been doing mail order since the stone age and they still do, because many of their customers live in DC for a short time and then move back to their hometowns or even abroad.  Exquisite is known for top quality and for natural fiber fabrics.
