Very reasonably priced cotton fabric, 6 yards for less than $30!

The store has an incredible selection of beautiful fabrics, so I was a little nervous to check the price tags but wound up being so happily surprised!!! I haven't found anywhere else in town that sells such lovely cotton for $4.99 a yard. The costumer service was also excellent. Joan and her son Joe even stayed after the store closed to answer all of my questions and give me helpful recommendations for sewing machines. I'm so happy I found a family owned shop with amazing prices and friendly faces.

Didn't get inside since the hours here are outdated. This one looks nicer fron the outside than the one in Somerville.

My experience was nothing short of FANTASTIC! From the minute that I walked from my car to the entrance of the store, I was in love from the curb lol. Upon walking inside I was immediately greeted with smiles from the staff. The staff is AMAZING, helpful and very attentive to each customers needs. I had tons of questions to be answered and it was no problem to them to answer them all. I walked away with so much knowledge and tips about sewing. I hope that the owner knows that he/she has a wonderful staff taking great care of the business. I only wished that the store provided a website so that customers are able to make online purchases. The next time that I'm in the area I will definitely visit this store.

So many prints/textures you might squeal like Martha Stewart (her squeals are just at a frequency unheard by human ears...)

Halloween costumes, curtains, rugs, pillow cases, tapestries--this is an endless fabric playground for someone who loves creating their own customized anything, fabric-related. It's small for a fabric store if you compare it to giants like Joann's, and a little overwhelming for the amount of stuff they have crammed into the square footage, but there are a million types of patterns, textures, and materials to suit your fancy. Chiffon, lycra, batik, heavy draperies...I came in looking for some lycra material for a superhero bodysuit, and ended up spending hours here. I was hesitant about buying a silver fabric, told the girl I'd think on it, only to come back 2 hours later to check out. Girl: "Oh, you came back. Did you decide on which you wanted?" Me: "I didn't go anywhere..." Girl: "Wait, you've been here THIS WHOLE TIME?" I guess she was shocked or weirded out that I spent 2 hours circling a fabric store. Or the sheer amount of time it takes me to make decisions. Either way, she was friendly and was happy to help this fabric-crazed girl. I asked one of the older women here how much material I needed for a Silk Spectre costume, and when I showed her a picture on my phone, she looked at me a little like I was making a string bikini or something -- I imagine it's the same look moms would give their daughters if they were told they took to stripping. Aside from the "Are you sure this is a HALLOWEEN costume?" glare of doubt, everyone here is pretty nice and helpful. I think I've found my new favorite fabric store alternative to Joann's:D...

My knitting class was very well run, organized, and informative. The student:instructor ratio is very low so we each got lots of personalized attention to work through our unique problems.

I came to the Garment District to check out the Halloween costumes! They have a huge selection of…read moreideas and costumes, all types of hats, shoes, masks. It's a wonderland! They also have a huge thrift section. I wasn't super sure about the quality of the deals. There were fun items and a lot of good stuff, but it seemed like some items were way too pricy to be worth it especially for used or stained items. We didn't really go into the by the pound or mens sections. The costume stuff was a tad on the expensive side. Also, they forgot to remove the security tag from the thing I purchased. I will have to return to get this removed. Might browse the racks to see if there are other great finds!

Yo....Garment District in Cambridge, MA completely flipped the script on me. Why was I expecting…read morethe whole 2 floors to look like a damn thrift dungeon with clothes on the floor??? Instead, Garment D. Is Organized, spotless and straight-up vibey. Two full floors to roam. Hot-pink walls, black-and-white checkerboard floors like stepping into an 80s music video. It's quirky, loud and proudly vintage. Everything's sorted with precision: pants with pants, denim with denim, tops with tops. These folks don't play around. And yeah, the majority of the clothing here is all use. But like I always do- I buy my stuff, take it home (or the cleaners), wash it and it snaps back looking like new. By the way- they do carry some new items- as in not used as well. My daughter and I bought some vintage denims, sweaters and a few other things. Zero mess. Zero stress. 100% unexpected.
