It's Fourth Street just south of South Street, for the most part, although there are a few on Fifth.

Boy howdy can I?!
1). Jack B. Fabrics on 4th
2). Kincus Fabrics on 4th
3). PA Fabric Outlet on 4th
4). BEST are the Jomar Shops. TONS of material at VERY LOW prices.

JOMAR is VERY low pricing... especially during sales. You can get heavy, beautiful tartan wool for about $3/yard. The others can range from $7 to $20 a yard, depending on whether the owner has had a good day or is fighting with the wife.

None of them knows the first thing about tartans. Going there and "haggling" will get you the best materials at the best prices.
