Upholstery fabric

Is there any source available to buy upholstery fabric by the yard other than the upholstery kit mfgrs.?

Re: Upholstery fabric

LaBonny Barron provided material by the yard several years ago. I would start there.

Vern...What are you looking for? I upholstered our 30 tudor last winter. I found a great look a like bedford cord with matching body cloth from Keyston Bros in Seattle. Very affordable.Their sample books are available on line.

If you are seeking a place that will retail directly from the Mill, ...not really. I am also assuming you have checked with Hirsch. The last order I made (-a month or so ago) was about $70 a yd. for Mohair and about $95 a yd for Bedford.

Likewise, I could not find anything either. I did call their Atlanta branch and asked for a sales rep to stop in to see us the next time they were in the area. When they come I will give them some samples of piece goods I have on hand so they can tell me what they have which is similar.
