Our Story

Made with Love,
Stitched with Care

Since 2008, Best Friends Fabric & More has been the trusted home for quilters, sewists, and fabric lovers across the country.

How It Began

A Quilter's Dream, Realized

Best Friends Fabric & More was born from a simple belief: every quilter deserves access to the finest fabrics, the most thoughtful tools, and a community that truly understands the craft.

Our founder, Margaret Ellis, spent years searching for a shop that combined premium quality with genuine expertise. When she couldn't find one, she built it herself — starting with a small storefront and a carefully curated selection of 200 fabrics.

Today, we carry over 3,000 products from the world's most respected fabric designers, and our community has grown to include quilters at every stage of their journey — from first-time beginners to award-winning artisans.
