Can someone PLEASE help me?????
where can I buy some SHIRRING material to make my girls some dresses?
I would really love to have a go at making my own but cant find anywhere to buy the fabric……. 🙁
You should be able to find the shirred fabric at JoAnn Fabrics, Hancock’s, Hobby Lobby, or any other chain fabric store. There’s generally not a lot of selection in the pre-shirred fabric but there are generally at least 3-5 prints to choose from.
