For my first few designs, I was told it would be too tough and time consuming to do on my medium rug. During the class, the instructors were helpful.

I made these cute kiwi birds! You submit a design idea ahead of time and they approve if it's feasible to make. Our instructor Angel(ina) was super kind and patient. There was a bit of a learning curve at first but then you get the hang of it. They have all the supplies and so many yarn colors, so you are able to be really creative and do whatever you want! Next time if I have enough patience l'll make a rug. It's a little pricey but was a fun, multi-hour experience so I think it was worth it!

I couldn't be happier with the shade installation for my high windows this past week. From start to…read morefinish, the entire process was seamless and professional. The team arrived on time (actually earlier than expected which I was happy about), came fully prepared, and handled the installation with impressive precision--especially given how high and challenging the windows were to access. The final result is absolutely stunning. The shades completely transformed the space--adding both elegance and functionality. They fit perfectly, operate smoothly, and elevate the overall look of the room in a way I didn't even anticipate. What really stood out was the attention to detail and care taken to ensure everything was installed flawlessly. The installers were respectful of my home, efficient, and clearly experienced in what they do. Highly recommend this company if you're looking for high-quality work and a beautiful end result. Worth every penny!

TL;DR - shop here for your weird stretchy fabric needs but wait for coupons…read more I have been a long time customer at Spandex World (10+ years mostly online orders but a few stops at their old brick and mortar in the garment district). I will always recommend this store when a client wants something stretchy that can't be sourced locally and I have had mostly good experiences over the years. I have a bad habit of impulsively buying weird prints and basics, to the point that I might as well consider fabric shopping as a second hobby. Anyway. Things you'll find at Spandex World - bright funky prints, mesh, solid knits, stretch velvet, stretch lace, stretch denim, sequins, stretch PVC, milliskin, mystique... Things I've made from Spandex World's fabrics - dance costumes (SO MANY DANCE COSTUMES), activewear, damn near indestructible pants from their heavyweight Ponte di Roma (seriously holding up for years of regular wear and washing), a LOTR style wedding dress from stretch velvet, a fembot costume using stretch PVC... Things to think about before ordering - they run sales really regularly. Basically every holiday (even minor ones) and then sometimes "just because" there's a promo code, so sign up for their newsletter before placing your order. Coupon codes never apply to clearance (which is usually a pretty solid deal as is). The only reason I'm docking a star is because of old customer service issues when I was ordering online. At one point in time I needed some stupid amount of one fabric and inquired about larger quantity discounts (this was before they implemented the wholesale tab, which still is a very small selection). The pricing wasn't the greatest so I just waited for their Black Friday sale to order 30 yards and then the Christmas sale to order another 32 when my client decided to double up after the first pieces were delivered. The other issue I had was when I ordered two fabrics that clearly coordinated on the site (eggplant mesh and eggplant sequins), I received a burgundy mesh and a bright purple sequin. If I was going for flashy clowns it would have been ok. It took multiple back and forth emails with photos for them to relent and send me the right fabrics because they claimed they might not show correctly online. Either way I would expect the two to at least coordinate, i.e. 2 purple or 2 burgundy fabrics, since the same equipment was used for the product photos. They did end up sending me the correct materials (check the photo of the dress :)) and eventually a shipping label to return the incorrect fabrics. It sucked because my turn around was really tight for a showcase in South Korea so I wouldn't have been able to just easily ship it to the final destination if I couldn't get it in my client's hands in time.
