Plus, her trusty Singer workhorse sewing machine always delivers. When Joann's in Kingston, NY shut down, two of the longtime employees put their heads and hearts together and opened Frugal Fabrics on Ulster Avenue. This isn't your typical fabric store- big box or otherwise. What sets Frugal apart is that these ladies accept some fabrics as donations and sell. But don't mistake that for low quality. The fabric selection here is impressive AND affordable. While my home leans neutral with rustic woods, concrete and stone, I love to funktify it with pops of color. I don't sew, but I do love beautiful fabric and walking into Frugal F. felt like heaven. The colors, the heft, the textures- especially the pieces I picked up, were delicious. It's a hidden gem for crafters and quilters- neither of which I am, but I'm so glad I came here- plus these ladies know their stuff. By the way, they offer a point system and get 'oink' ;-) points based on how many yards of fabric were purchased.

One time when on a time crunch and couldn't waste the travel time to get a piece of fabric, I called and described what I needed, and the shopkeeper sent me out the piece of felt. It was exactly the color I needed for a Life size Elf I was creating for The Christmasville Festival in South Carolina. Love this Shop!

It is a small shop and I came in with my dress (obviously a customer). When I asked if they worked there and told them I had an appointment they said ok and proceeded to talk amongst themselves, offering no help or explanation! I waited 30 minutes for the seamstress to arrive late to my appointment! After my fitting, a few weeks went by and I hadn't heard back so I called the shop and I was told it had been done for weeks! Wtf?! When I picked up my dress the seamstress did not fix what I asked her to, after stating these were easy fixes. She said she made 1 of the 2 adjustments I had asked for (you could have fooled me) and claimed we never discussed the other adjustment. It gets worse, she also STAINED my dress in 3 spots and blamed me stating that it was my makeup (it was obviously not my makeup). I told her this and she argued with me claiming that if it wasn't my makeup it was probably my deodorant or body sweat and that she didn't even touch that area of the dress. Again wtf. She told me to hand wash it and it would be fine. It's a dry clean only dress that I brought to her brand new without stains! I told her I wasn't happy with her work and she told me the dress was not flattering and it was ugly. She continued to say that she doesn't understand why I bought the dress in the first place because it doesn't suit me and no amount of alterations would make it look nice. Honestly, what a b****. She then told me about a "fat" client of hers who bought the same dress and said it looked ugly on her too. They also only accept cash, although there are no signs stating that. If you guessed she had a rude remark to make about this as well, you'd be right! My dress cost $200 and I paid her $30 to stain it and "make alterations" (that let's be honest she did not make) and to be insulted. With her shitty attitude and poor sewing skills I don't know how she stays in business. If you want someone to degrade you, she's your gal. Otherwise you can accomplish the same outcome with the sewing skills of a toddler and some kind of staining agent. 0/5 stars
