Where do I get custom canvas sizes from?

Post by Jack Lias »

The last several projects I've had the mind to start, I went to Michael's to buy the supplies and none of the canvases they sold were large enough for the project. Is there somewhere I could go to buy larger sizes?

I get all my stuff by the metre from eBay, but you could try somewhere like JoAnn's?

The only chain I've found that sells aida by the yard is Hancock Fabrics, and they usually only have 14ct. My local Hobby Lobby, Jo-Ann, and Michael's only have up to 30" x 36" at the biggest for the precut fabric.

I've also used ebay to get 18 ct in larger cuts.

Here in Canada most fabric stores have big rolls of aida cloth that they can cut to order for you. I once came across a craft store shutting down and was able to buy a couple 2 yd rolls so larger sizes are out there. Looks like Herrschners may have some: http://www.herrschners.com/Product/18Ct ... +x+28.aspx

Herrschners has some aida cloth that is about 28 inches by 2 yards. It's what I got for my current project. It comes in white or cream and is available in 11, 14, and 18 count I believe.
