Big selection of Sunbrella (what I came for!), and other outdoor and upholstery fabrics. And they won my business yesterday because they're one of the only stores open on a Sunday.
We chased away our original helper because we needed time to grab swatches, talk, consider, and look at the swatches inside and out. But it wasn't hard to find another one when we needed the bolt moved and yardage cut. Each person we dealt with was friendly and good at fabric small talk.
My husband keeps wanting the impossible, but three different people engaged him on the topic of, "is there anything cats won't scratch?"
It feels like H&R has a bigger remnant section maybe?, and Tempe Sales has that whole separate room of super cheap fabric, but Fabric Depot does have their sales/remnant fabrics right in front of the store where you can see them. I wish I wasn't always here looking for some very specific thing, because there have been some great fabrics in front the couple times I've been here.
Now to go take my outdoor upholstery fabric to someone who knows what to do with it! (hint: not me! :) )
