Just got back from another trip to DongDaeMun fabric market and wanted to share some sample swatches I grabbed from the fabric vendors on this trip. Many of the thousands of vendors at this place have the booklets available on their tables (if not you just need to ask for them to get you some).

I've been trying to geographically inventory what kind of fabrics are on all the floors and in the 4 buildings to including in my PR Review of this place, but it is insane!! I picked up mostly knits samples this time, cotton/wool, cotton/rayon. They have tons of acrylic and poly knits, but I'm into the natural fibers.

I love it here and already counting down how many weeks/months are left before we have to leave this country. I plan to go back every week with a couple of projects in mind, having access to this kind of place definitely makes you less compelled to stash!

If any of you come to South Korea, this is a must see place for crafters! NAYY, I just want to let everyone know about this fabulous place!

I'd like to order 2 yds of that charcoal with burgundy swirly-prints, please. And hmmm...3 yds of that black boucle-type, far left on the same row. Do you give volumn discounts?

And could you do larger swatches please!

Hi! I arrived here to Camp Humphreys last month and have been searching for a fabric store, so I was so excited to see this post! I have only made 2 trips into Seoul so far, but I really want to make a trip to this market asap. I was wondering if you had any additional info on the best vendors, etc...I really am looking mainly for cottons. I was also wondering have you seen any fat quarters there since I know they mostly sell wholesale. What kind of patterns do they offer and have you seen any disney fabric? Any info would be MUCH appreciated. My email is jessicabrocato@yahoo.com. I'm so excited about this place and I haven't even gone yet! Thank you!
