I love this shop. They helped me choose a cotton voile and it turned out to be one of the loveliest fabrics I've ever bought. Their selection is very well curated, it's a special place that I enjoy visiting.

The best fabric store I have been to! Phenomenal selection of quality non-synthetic fiber clothing fabrics, enthusiastic and knowledgeable people to help you choose. Reasonable price/yd. I hope they keep their sewing patterns as well- sometimes you’re inspired by a pattern to get a certain fabric and vice versa. Made a Chanel style jacket from their tweed and bubblegum pink rayon lining, and a sewing pattern from the store as well.

Banksville Fabrics is a true gem of a fabric store. This is a smaller independently owned fabric store, but their selection is the best I've found in the tri-state area (including the now largely defunct garment district). Their staff is all extremely knowledgeable, the store is impeccably organized, their prices incredibly fair, and the quality of the fabrics and trimmings they carry unsurpassed. If you're looking for bargain $1-2/yd synthetic junk fabric stick to Jo-Annes and Michaels, if you're ready to upgrade to beautiful fabrics in natural fibers (cottons, linens, wools, silks, and assorted blends and stretch blends) this is where to go. They do also carry gorgeous synthetics you're not going to find elsewhere, Lycra, spandex, and other stretch fabrics. Weightings range from light weight to heavier upholstery. They also have additional on-site storage so if you don't see what you're looking for on the sales floor ask, because they may be able to find something for you.

I’m so glad the old owner sold this fabric store. He was a miserable awful person, as evident in the older one star reviews from past years. The new and improved Banksville has become a place of wonder and magic for creative sewists in lower Fairfield county. It is finally welcoming and positive again! The new owner is amazing, and she very clearly loves her job. The staff is happy again. Could not recommend this place more! If you’re reading this and you went to Banksville and had a negative experience under the miserable old owner, please give them another chance!
