fabric stores in paris

[stereoette]

My mom is going to paris this weekend, and I am going at the end of the summer, and I was wondering if the Parisians here had any fabric store suggestions? I mainly sew clothing, but I would love anything that I might not be able to find in the states.

try :
Kaze - japanese fabrics - 11 rue françois miron - paris 4e
Bouchara - big store, 3 levels - 1 rue la fayette - paris 9e
Mokuba - ribbons - 18 rue montmartre - paris 1er

and while you visit Montmartre (every tourist does), you stop at Place St Pierre, with the huge fabric stores

i would add that in the streets going down from place saint pierre to the boulevard barbès you have many fabrics stores open everyday (because le marché saint pierre isn't open everyday (I think)

the shops in the streets around marché st pierre metro Barbès Rochechouard are cheap by example i found jersey for 4 euros/meters , and its in suburbs but close to paris the market of Choisy le Roi every thursday and sunday mornings is very interesting !
