I wanted my mom to make my first prom dress(1979). That following weekend she took me to Schoolhouse Fabrics! I was an old soul..I always wanted to be with my mom and her side of the family. Grandmother a few of her sisters, aunts and great aunts..lol. ALL of us were crafters. Quilts, garments, cross stitching(that was mine). I now love quilting and Schoolhouse Fabrics was and still is my "go to" place! Great prices for such quality of quilting fabric. They have always greeted me with a smile. If I look lost, there very helpful with helping me. Even if I need advice on sewing machines, color matching and finding an older fabric line that I didn't buy enough to finish my project. A lot of times they had it and took me straight to it! Thank you for everything you have done to make my experience a happy one! read more

Absolutely love everything about this store. Every part of it, the unique fabrics and findings, the lovely staff, the building are all worth the stop. It feels like a time capsule and rare blast from the past. I stop here every time I in Floyd and find inspiration and supplies for a new project. read more

A treasure hunt in every room. If you're looking for hard to find vintage fabric fabrics this is heaven, all three floors!

I was on Pinterest when I saw the ad. I haven't been there yet but the photos are worth a thousand words. I can hardly wait to get there. We will taking the 5 hour drive and making a camping trip out of it. See you when we get there! read more

We drove an hour and a half for two rooms of fabric. If you love Riley Blake and Moda, go somewhere else. We were so disappointed.

My mother and drove 37 miles My my mother and I went there on June 29 drove 37 miles to get there what a disappointment no one greeted us we had to find someone to answer our questions and they didn't care that we were there or not and could care less whether they waited on us or not we will never go back read more

Very friendly and helpful. Three floors of fabrics to indulge my sewing addiction. Good prices, lots of notions and buttons and trim and I could go on and on. read more

I love this store! Huge selection, all kinds of notions, great prices. Rooms and rooms. Traditional quilting fabric, batiks, home decorator fabric, and my favorite as a crazy-quilter: the bridal room. Lace, satin, silk, organza, taffeta, velvet, lace appliques, absolutely everything. And that's just the stuff. The people are lovely. No wonder the store draws customers from all over Virginia and even North Carolina. If you sew or quilt, check it out! Probably a good idea to allow yourself plenty of time, because there's so much to explore and you can really make a day of enjoying Floyd. read more

I am able to dash in, find what I need, and leave; BUT a real treat is to have the time to browse the entire store, back building included. Selections at Schoolhouse have saved me countless hours and dollars. I appreciate the friendly, helpful folks and the delight of a well-stocked, interestingly organized store. read more

What a disappointment. The fabrics were old and dated. The selection was minimal. The building was not heated and the floor felt like it was not structurally sound. I won't go back. read more

Wonderful place. It took my husband 10 minutes to find me in the store. Rooms full of great priced fabric. Tons of notions ,patterns, lots of great ideas! read more

I have been doing business with School House Fabrics for years and I have never had a bad experience. If you are looking for something special, check with them first. The owner and all the women who work for him are outstanding in dealing with customers and finding whatever you need to work with. Every time I go to Virginia, that is the first place I go to buy or show what I have done with their fabrics. And......the owner always thanks me for my business which is good to hear in this day and time. Can you tell I am sold on this business? read more

I love Schoolhouse Fabrics. My top picks come from the soft, tightly woven japanese cotton fabrics with all manner of beautiful prints. I use these to make customized shopping bags for friends, and also for gift bags (to be used instead of wrapping paper). The fabric is not cheap, for sure, and it is worth every penny. I've never seen anything like these other places. As well, the bridal/formal section down the stairs at the back has fabulous glitzy fabrics: everything from gorgeous silk chiffon to sequined fabrics of all types -- I use the fabrics from this room to make costumes. I love the selection of camo fabrics. I get ideas for different things every time I come in. Check out the marked-down remnants! Great upholstery fabric and also wonderful printed vinyl for topping work spaces with style. Everyone working there is so helpful, and kind, as well. This store is a gift to the community. read more
