    Gorgeous fabric!!
    Susan K.

    We were searching for fabric to cover our chairs and found the most amazing fabric at B Wilk! I recommend it highly! And the owner is extremely friendly and nice to work with

    I found the customer service absolutely horrendous. The sales associate insulted me and was very rude. Not worth the negative attitude.

He lost my cushion! How do you lose a cushion? By being a disorganized slob of a businessman!!! I left a $300 dep. with the owner, Eric Trobman.

    Ah, Maxie's Daughter. What a fun jumble of a place…read more This is another of the venerable fabric merchants on Philadelphia's storied Fabric Row, although originally they were over on 9th, part of that lovable jumble called the Italian Market, known then as Max Wilk Fabrics. Max Wilk was where my grandmother got the fabric used to make my christening gown. In the early 90s they moved over to 4th Street and renamed themselves "Maxie's Daughter" as the 4th generation - indeed, Max's daughter and family - took over. Maxie's, like many fabric merchants on the row, has tons of end-run bolts as well as stock fabric. The right half of the store is dedicated to upholstery and drapery fabric, while the left side is clothing everything from linen to lace to silk. It's a jumble, but not as cramped feeling as some others, just as long as you don't mind scooting sideways down the aisles. The ladies clearly run the show here, and boy to they know their stuff. They also are not afraid to cut deals even on end-run bolts. "I'll give it to you for $10 a yard if you take the whole bolt". Really? This is $75 a yard stuff. You got it! They are fun and knowledgable and kind in the gruff way of South Philly. No, they're not polished or sophisticated. You want that? There are places for you. This is not one of them. It's for the fabric lover who doesn't mind the jumble and the phones and the little dogs and the calls of "Irving! Where are the scissors?!" "Irving! Can you get that bolt from the basement?" "Irving, come help lift this!". Irving, by the way, gets a gold star for life being the sole gentleman amongst these very bossy ladies. :)

    This is an amazing place to learn a new craft! The studio space is comfortable and inviting, and…read moreconveniently located (good luck if you're driving tho, but check out the rite aid for "free" parking). I've taken two classes there now, sewing 101 and quilting. Taught by different instructors, both so excellent at de-coding patterns and supporting you each step of the way! Extra shout out to Emily reaching quilting 101, who goes above and beyond to make sure that 6-9pm is still a productive learning time, assigning easy homework we can do independently, and literally offering to lend me a sewing machine for home because I'm so behind. I look forward to taking more of their classes! From bras to jackets, they have weeks-long series as well as one days.

I decided this was the year I was going to learn how to use it and I signed up for sewing 101. I take a Saturday morning class with Lara and I cannot say enough good things. They make it so easy to follow along, answer every question (even when you ask the same thing 3 different times) are so patient! I was even able to bring in my Grandmother's machine and Lara helped me get it set up and recommended a few pieces and tweaks. I can't wait to continue my sowing journey at Butcher's Sew Shop and am excited for what I make nex!
