Where to Buy Cheap Fabric Online
In my experience, these are the three top places for finding indoor outdoor quality fabric at good prices:
Fabric.com
Fabric.com has one of the largest selections of upholstery fabric I’ve ever seen. There is some more high end fabrics, but there is a big ol’ selection of discount upholstery fabric too.
Online Fabric Store
Online Fabric Store is very similar to Fabric.com – they have a lot of different types of fabrics, with a great selection of cheap fabrics.
Joann
While Joann does have brick and mortar stores that sell fabric, they actually have a ton more fabric online that isn’t available in stores! You can use coupons to get extra discounts too!

Affordable Blue Home Decor Fabrics

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12 / 13 / 14 / 15
There are a lot of blues here, I know. I just kept finding so many that were gorgeous that I couldn’t not include them all. My personal favorites are:
2 – Those roses! You’ll see them more in this post in other colors as well!
5 – The cobalt dragons. These sooo need to go somewhere in my house! I love the cobalt in this print – doesn’t make it too much.
11 – A blue leopard print. I love this twist on leopard print. I think the blue gives it a traditional, but lighter feel.
Affordable Green Home Decor Fabrics

I just used #2, the green cheetah type print, on the cornice in my office makeover – I’ll have photos of it up soon! It’s a gorgeous print and I’m so glad I found it for my office.
I’m desperately trying hard to find a place to fit #3, the zebras, into my house somewhere. Aren’t those great?
Affordable Red Home Decor Fabrics

I really like how the black was brought in to #1. Sometimes black and red can feel like a little too much together, but I think it’s the perfect pattern here.
I also love those bold red roses in #2 – the color is just stunning.
Affordable Pink Home Decor Fabrics

I think #1 might just be my favorite flamingo print I’ve seen on fabric to date. It’s not too childish and has a chic feel.
I adore those pink roses (#3) – they have a gorgeous vintage feel. Yes, they are the same print as the red ones above, just a different color. That pattern comes in lots of different colors!
Affordable Black and Gray Home Decor Fabrics
A good black and white stripe never goes out of style, but I especially love how the stripes on #5 have a more painted feel. They aren’t too stuffy.
Affordable Floral Home Decor Fabrics

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10
Floral prints – particularly ones that have a vintage vibe – and I are having a moment. I’m starting to think about the design for the screened-in porch at the farmhouse since it never got done last year and I’m really leaning toward some vintage feel floral prints paired with mint green and black and white.
