After searching everywhere for a way to conceal it, I found Calico and went to them. I brought photos of the condition, and they sent their measurer/installer, David. He took extensive measurements (2 trips) and made a suggestion that instead of hanging with drapery hooks, they use velcro. This will enable them to be completely removed prior to maintenance, It took several months to fabricate the intricate design, but the result is outstanding! I hesitate to say "any store" can make window curtains, but I KNOW that very few could make this! Everyone in the store was completely helpful throughout the process; special thanks to Anna!

As soon as I walked in, the only store employee who was working at the time named JANE did not greet me at all. She showed poor customer service and was not able to help me with what I needed. When I walked over to where she was standing she failed to greet me again as a customer, and never said anything such as "How May I help you?" Once I finally got Jane's attention she just stared at me...so I proceeded to let her know the reason why I'm visiting the store was to find a beige colored piece of fabric to patch up a mark I had on my coat. The first thing Jane told me was "we don't have that type of material." She didn't bother to look at my garment or offer to assist me in finding something similar. She then proceeded to tell me "you can look around yourself." I almost walked out of the store due to her lack of customer service. I was honestly disgusted by her attitude and how rude she was. Jane, I hope you learn how to have basic customer service skills one day because your service was awful towards me.

Unfortunately the time away from my visit did not warm me towards this establishment. First off, the selection was not nearly what I had hoped for - which I'm relieved about in retrospect since I'll never give them my business. The bolts were leaning on each other in cubbies versus hanging on the wall like other outlets. I mention this only bc it requires some rooting around to find something you're looking for. This is not a deal breaker for me, but customer service is. That being said, there were two employees present when I was shopping. One woman, behind the counter, seemed friendly & helpful enough. I wish I had asked her name so I could mention her specifically. Had she been working alone I assume this review would be entirely different. The other employee, an older woman with gray hair, was unbelievably rude & I was rendered nearly speechless! She behaved so unprofessionally towards me that I walked out of the store & had to explain to my young kids what "inconsiderate" meant and why we don't patronize places that belittle us. I'm not sure why she has a chip on her shoulder...or maybe she was having a bad day...but her attitude was unjustified & they lost a potential weekly textile purchase. It was a major disappointment all around. ----UPDATE Nov.2013---- Apparently she WAS just having a bad day and has since reconciled. I am compelled now to return to the store and take a look around b/c I am all about second chances and they definitely deserve one. Will update my Yelp once I do.

Fabric Factory Outlet's location is in a kind of run-down strip mall close to Rt 46. The interior is pretty bare-bones, and the fabric bolts are all just laying on end in rows, organized (loosely) by type, color. The selection isn't very good in my opinion. They didn't really have anything remarkable, lots of stuffy fabrics my mom might like -- but even her tastes are better than what they offered. Even if you were looking for some basic upholstery fabric (velvets, tweed-chenille type) they didn't have that great of a selection -- and the prices weren't that great. For a better selection, I'll still go to Fabric Warehouse in Belleville. Up front, they seem to offer some curtain and upholstery services, in back they had a room with discounted bolts of fabric. The staff was basically not helpful at all, and even though I am STILL looking for upholstery fabric, I probably won't be going back here again.

It cost us almost $2000, but it turned out to be super disappointing. The design and color were totally different. we refused to pay the rest at first, since the owner promised to fix the issue. Then we gave them the money. HOWEVER, he NEVER showed up. Even we have scheduled an appointment and my husband took half day off and waited for him, but he cancelled in the last minute. The staff is so rude and curtain looks so cheap but cost thousand of dollars! NEVER EVER choose this design company!
