We've lived in Grandview Heights for 3 years and I just discovered the absolute most wonderful fabric source on earth only 2 blocks from the house. Chelsea House Desgn Source is a Trade Design Center serving the design community in Ohio, Kentucky & West Virginia. I could never afford designer fabrics the likes of Robert Allen, Beacon Hill, Waverly or Schumacher. But in the warehouse of Chelsea House a shopping bag full to the brim of promotional samples, called memos in the trade, can be had for a mere $5! Yes, I said $5.00!!! And these fabrics are stunning. They're generally 18" to 27" squares, but you can find larger pieces. Simply dig deeper in the bin. Bolts of fabric can be had for as little as $2.50/yard up to maybe $6 or $10! Fabrics whose retail prices may be well over $100! I just couldn't believe a find like this in my own back yard. This is a crafter's paradise.
