How is the web site look & feel / user friendliness? Is it easy to surf?

Lucy's Fabrics has an attractive and easy to use website. Photos are clear and load quickly and descriptions are thorough. This store specializes in knit fabrics.

The selection is varied and just large enough to be interesting but not so large that it is overwhelming. There are many prints (see note below) and a good selection of basic colors, some stretch and non-stretch trims and lace, and eyelet tape. They also offer a few notions including buckles, cotton swimsuit elastic, and the LJ Design fusible stay tapes that are so handy.

Note on the prints: The scale of the prints is accurately noted in the description under each fabric on the website. I wasn't paying attention to the written description of one print I ordered and it is a much smaller scale (and cuter) than what my eye had seen in the photo.

Is this a commercial web site? If yes how are the prices? Do they have a secure shopping cart?

It is a commercial website and I think the prices are very reasonable for the quality of fabric and service. The shopping cart is secure and payment can be made with credit card and paypal.

How is the customer service?

Customer service is wonderful. There was a small question about my order and Laura was quick to email and was very helpful and pleasant.

Have you bought anything from this web site? If yes, was the item delivered on time?

This week I placed my second order with Lucy's Fabrics and the box arrived just a few days after ordering online. Orders can also be placed by phone. Shipping is by USPS or UPS and with a minimum order the shipping is free. For continental US the minimum is $75, a minimum I managed to reach easily with the fun selection of fabrics offered. Lucy's Fabrics ships wordwide.

Would you recommend this site to others?

Yes!

Mufffet 10/22/09 This is a great site, and the service is excellent - I totally agree. I have ordered several times. Mostly knits, and a lot of light knits. Also she usually has some cotton jersey made from recycled cotton fibers from the factory, not from old socks. :) These look lovely, though I haven't purchased any recycled fabrics yet. I do plan to.

quathy 10/22/09 I've been admiring that site, especially those recycled knits that look so soft and interesting... thanks for the review!!! Mufffet, do let us know when you order your not-socks knit! I'm on a fabric diet, so I'll have to enjoy them vicariously through you!!

monkeylala 10/25/09 Thanks for the review! I am always looking for new places to shop for fabric. They have some fun prints and their prices appear to be quite reasonable.
