Definitely recommend if you're looking for historically accurate fabrics, notions, and more.Renaissance Fabrics is a great source for reasonably priced, hard to find materials for historical costumers. This last time I ordered some hem tape and cotton sateen, and received them a few days later (they're very quick with their shipping, too!) As a newer costumer, I appreciate how they list what eras or types of projects that a particular fabric or trim may be good for.I had some patterns printed by Renaissance Fabrics printing service. They we done promptly and I really enjoyed having an way to get an online pattern printed instead of having to tape all those pieces together. This is a fantastic offering from them and I have used it at least three times.Really amazing, quality fabrics and I love making my traditional Chinese-style dresses and shirts out of their material.

I recommend them to everyone I know who sews!I'm always hesitant to order fabrics online. When you shop in person, you always know what you're going to get, but with online fabric stores, yes, many offer swatches, but I'm not always satisfied with the quality. Renaissance fabrics, on the other hand, has never failed to deliver a quality product. I am exceedingly picky with fabrics for a number of reasons, so when placing my first order (without asking for a swatch because I was feeling brave), not only was I pleasantly surprised at how wonderful the linen I ordered was, but they quickly became one of my go-to fabric suppliers for costuming projects, daily wear fabrics, and nearly any other need. The quality is excellent. The shipping and delivery time is amazingly fast. Best of all (though I haven't had much need to contact their customer service) I've always gotten prompt responses to any question I've had, even when I wasn't entirely sure what I was trying to ask. They've been wonderful as a company. For most projects now, unless I have a specialty vendor that works in the time period and specific fabrics I need for a project, Renaissance Fabrics is the first place I check when looking for a new project. Black linen for a gothic Victorian recreation of Lenore from Poe's "The Raven"? They had exactly what I wanted, in the perfect weight for the layers I envisioned. Heavy duty fabrics for the creation of my first handmade stays? That was my first bold purchase, and I could not be happier. And in a few days I'll be shopping them again for even more linen to start working on my me-made wardrobe, because their products are fantastic. They may not have the widest variety in the world (and let's be real, who does?) but they've got such a wonderful selection that I can always find something that will work for my project, and I can always be confident that it will arrive swiftly, for a decent price, and will be the amazing quality I've come to demand from any company I buy from now. They've set the standard. 100%, I'll recommend them any time.Frequently order online, very satisfied with the quality of the fabrics I order.

They are my go to source for wools and silks for historical reconstructions and also more modern additions to my wardrobe. They are amazing about sending swatches and also suggestions for coordinating colors. When I was making my 1880s stripped silk taffeta gown, they included additional swatches that they thought were a closer match to what I was looking for and I ended up selecting one of those fabrics for a much better end result.

I have never been disappointed with the fabric from Renaissance - colors are always rich and saturated (and very true to color shown in pictures on my phone and computer), no flaws EVER, super high quality (no stingy thread counts on the taffeta here), way better variety than I can even get here in Portland, and well packaged with fast shipping. I managed to make an appointment to go in in person while I was in the area once, and the lady who helped me was very nice and knowledgable.
