Betty's Fabrics

Good: It's a cozy place to shop. It could really have the potential of being a great store.. Bad: However, the unwilligness to bring in new fabric other then quilting or material used to make scrubs. It makes it a non desireable place to shop for fabric.. Improvements: The store could improve with more friendlier staff, perhaps younger people with more knowledge on newer fabrics. Also, a change in the fabrics that they have currently... it seems to be the same things that I saw a few years ago. Also, they should take special orders for fabrics that they do not have. That reall puts a damper on any project I may want to work with since they have no real good selction so, I have to take my business elsewhere (internet).. more

This is a surprisingly large shop with a lot of inventory for a local place. It is right next door to Beverly's fabrics and crafts, so they have to stay pretty competitive. They have patterns, LOTS of material, notions and just about anything you could need for sewing. As a person who has never sewn before in my life, I felt very comfortable in this store since the staff walked around the store with me and helped me find everything that I needed to make my first sewing project. more

Bettys has quite a bit of fabric available but their price is pretty high. A lot of times you can walk next door to Beverlys and find what you're looking for a little cheaper. But when they're the only large exclusive fabric store in town, can't complain too much. Big problem is that they don't offer a lot of help--unless you're older and look like you sew. I've gone in 3 times and not one person helped me or was friendly. However another lady came in behind who had fabric swatches and she was helped in an instant. more
