  I found Elfriede’s store the year I came to CU, 1983. I went inside and fell in love with the lady who owns the shop, Elfriede. Fast forward to 1994, I wanted to learn how to sew, so I went back to that store I had visited all those years ago. Once again I fell in love with Elfriede and the most exquisite cuts of fabrics I had ever seen. I’ve been a client of Elfriede ever since. I am fortunate to also call her my dear friend. I have made some gorgeous garments and projects with her fabrics. Even 20 years later people admire my Chanel style jacket I made with her woolens and silks. There are other fabric stores in and around town, but none measure up. Once you’ve sewn with fabrics purchased at Elfriede’s Fine Fabrics you will always notice a huge difference in quality and handling when you sew with just plain fabrics.

  I visited Elfriede's store with a dear friend who is a bead artist. The minute I walked in, I knew I was in heaven. The selection of incredible fabrics, from simple quilting cottons, to the Liberty of London Tea lawn prints to wool and fabulous silks...She has everything. Elfriede and her staff are the utmost processionals, are are knowledgeable about every aspect of sewing. I had such a great time that even though I am not from the Boulder area. I will be back soon! WOW!!!!

  LOVE this place for beautiful, unique fabrics - including imports you can't find anywhere else. And it's my understanding that their Vogue patterns are always half price. If you are looking for one-of-a-kind fabrics and great customer service, this is your place. Please note, though, that the fine fabrics come with a cost to match. Not your place if you are not prepared to pay higher prices for your fabric. I shop here for exclusive outfits/quilts - not for basics that I can get somewhere else cheaper.
