Fabrics Etc. 2 -- Bensenville IL (Part 2)






There are two classrooms at Fabrics Etc. 2; the larger one is all set up with the technology to put the teacher on a big screen so everyone can see the techniques. This is the smaller classroom and I was lured in by all the quilts on the walls....

"Mod Quads" is a class offered in September....


If you want to take the class for "Beacon Hill", this beautiful star quilt, you need to hurry! Classes are on Thursday evenings, July 28 and August 4.














You missed the class for Radiant Star; classes were earlier in July. But if enough people ask, won't they do it again???






I really liked the quilting on the log cabin quilt.....












...and for someone just learning to quilt, this "Start at the Beginning" class would be just the thing to get them going. The class is offered twice, in August and September.






Look at all the Halloween and autumn themed fabrics!


And two very cute Halloween panels -- with bats!!






















Fabrics Etc. 2 is located at 1105 S. York Road, Bensenville IL (phone: 630-238-8000), so if you have a little bit of a layover between flights at O'Hare, you might be able to sneak in a visit. It's only about 20 miles away!

  1. Fabrics etc. 2 is a treasure for any quilter or fabric lover. I feel fortunate it is only ten minutes from home. Mary and her staff are helpful, knowledgeable, and always welcoming. The monthly sew club is an opportunity to learn new techniques, and to be supported and encouraged by other sewers and quilters who appreciate the work and skill in every project.
