20 minutes from historic downtown Bluffton is one of my favorite fabric stores..... Discount Fabrics. It is located at 10 Barrel Landing Road in Bluffton SC, The phone number is 843-705-2626 and you can always give them a call when you are searching for a special fabric. The owner of Discount Fabrics, Benny, is a gifted dog whisperer. She rescues dogs in peril and helps them heal and become the most well behaved and well mannered pets. Some go on to be service dogs and some come to the fabric store and hang out waiting for their lucky new owners to walk through the door!.
I was lucky enough to end up with one on those amazing dogs....
(Bennie also has been known to give advice to customer with "doggie discipline" issues as she is cutting your fabric and trims.
I always wanted to take Lucky to her for some "lessons" )

this is "Ditto" her own dog which is also a rescue |
|
what a beautiful face!!!! |
a few of the bolts of fabric.....

so many of the fabrics on the bolt are $9.90 a yard..What a great price! |
|
soft blue/greens and aquas |
|
blues are very popular now |
|
Discount Fabrics has so many samples for custom ordering.... |
|
trims of all colors and varities |
|
so many choices with samples being large enough to really "SEE" the fabrics |
|
this is bull denim in natural..the choice for great durable slipcovers.. a good foundation for great coastal design!!!! |
IN MEMORY OF FOSTER
My beautiful and loving and well behaved Foster. Bennie gave him a second chance and taught him wonderful manners. I will always be grateful to her for saving this amazing dog and for my chance to have him in my life for 12 years.
THANKS BENNY!!!!!
First - dogs have a way of piercing the soul, don't they? I have a cocker spaniel, Thomas, that is like my 4th child.
ReplyDeleteSecond - I got to have some of that fabric with the turtles on it! Do you happen to know what it's called?
OH YES!! The turtle and fish fabrics are just made for Tybee decorating! Don't you just love the simple pleasures?!?
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine my life without a dog or two.
ReplyDeleteI love my dogs too....Foster...what a sweet face.
ReplyDeleteWe have fostered 2 labs and have two yellows of our own...I hope you adopt again...what a blessing dogs are and you are for rescuing!
