Fabric stores in Montreal??

[Keith and Michelle]

For plus size stores, make sure you check out Addition-Elle. They are
a bit pricey but they're clothes are really nice. Also good are
Reitman's ( they have a line of clothing called Encore which is 14+)
and Cotton Ginny Plus. And there is also Laura Plus, but they are a
bit out of my price range.
HTH!

I would appreciate any info regarding fabric stores in Montreal. Also
any stores specializing in larger sizes.
Thank you very much.

There aren't any, but I have a large stash of fabric that keeps growing if
that counts for any thing!

For clothing stores, I think the chains have all been mentioned,
Addition-Elle, Rietmans, Laura II (plus), Cotton Ginny Plus, maybe
Antels? The large size department at The Bay (La Baie) store downtown
is very good and carries the designer large sizes, Elizabeth etc.

There is a very good shoe store on St-Hubert that carries boots for
wide calves, very expensive (over $200), but consider that they are
full leather products, no cheap stuff. The kind of shoes and boots that
you take to the shoemaker and have rebuilt endlessly. It is called
Chaussures D'Antin, 6629 St-Hubert.

For fabric stores, since I'm already down on St-Hubert checking out the
shoe stores, I go over to C & M Textiles, 7500 St-Hubert. It is the
kind of fabric store that has everything, there is lots to browse and
lots of help - French speaking - but they have a huge warehouse of
everything else, if you have something in mind, ask for it. There are
other stores in that area to check out also, but this one has been
there forever. They also have a parking lot!
It doesn't hurt to check out the chain stores also, BouClair is very
established and popular.

Kawanage is not on the West-Island but on the south shore. To go to
the West Island, it's one of two ways, off the 20 or the 40 heading
west.

The West Island comprises, Pointe-Claire, Pierrefonds, Beaconsfield,
Kirkland, etc..

Fabric stores or quilting stores?
For quilt stores, there are a couple in the suburban part, called the West
Island (an area made up of several suburbs). They're a distance from
downtown and you'd need your own transport for them. The one I frequent is
actually off the island, across the Mercier bridge in Kahnwake. Again, you'd
need your own transport.
For regular fabric stores, we have several branches of the Fabricville chain
as well as Bouclair, also a chain.
