View from Geary St. |
When you find a fabric store with character, history, and wonderful variety, you just want to talk about it. I recently visited Britex Fabrics in San Francisco, California. Wow!
The first floor |
Britex is a San Francisco landmark. The family-run store first opened in 1952, and has been in its current location at 146 Geary Street since 1962. Walk in and enjoy four floors of neatly arranged fabrics – everything from cottons and woolens to linens and synthetic blends. The third floor has a large notions department – a gadget lover’s dream!
Fabric finds! |
Britex’s cotton selection was particularly impressive. I discovered some lovely holiday fabrics from Japan. The collection can be pricey, so if you’re looking for bargains, head up to the fourth floor and check out the remnants section. I found some beautiful batiks there.
Thank you! Come again... |
The next time I am in San Francisco, you know where you will find me!
