In continuing with my Everything Else Series, today I’d like to introduce a wonderful Canadian online shop, Flare Fabrics at www.flarefabrics.ca . Flare Fabrics specializes in Batiks and carries an impressive selection of quality fabrics. I’m very excited about finding a Canadian shop that carries so many bag making supplies, and I’m happy to have a chance to share it here. 

You can find all the different types of batting and interfacing you’ll need for bag making, including Soft and Stable, which I’ve been using a lot of lately. If you’re the type who likes to stock up and save, you’ll be happy to know you can even purchase interfacing by the bolt. There is also Bosal In-R-Form foam stabilizer, which I’ve yet to try, but I hear it’s great for bags too. Check out all the different interfacings here. There is also a nice selection of zippers in many colours, and even a few fun patterned ones! If you don’t see what you need, Marlene is happy to custom order if she can, just send her an email.

You can also find some hardware for bags here, some great items, like invisible magnetic snaps, and these beautiful twist locks. Wonder clips and frixion pens are some of my favourite notions and are stocked at Flare Fabrics as well. 

I can’t forget to mention the fabric selection! In addition to the Batiks, Flare Fabrics carries many other fabrics, including a variety of Kona Cotton, in precuts and yardage. Check out the precuts too! I love this Birch Farm Charm pack.

The icing on the cake for this store is FREE SHIPPING in Canada for orders over $75 (free US shipping for orders over $150)!
Marlene has also offered an exclusive discount for my readers! Use coupon code HAPPYOKAPI to save 15% on all orders until the end of March, 2015!!
