Mayra from So Sew Easy visited Casa Dei Tessuti in Florence, Italy. She thinks it may be the world's finest fabric shop.

She writes, 

"I found myself in Casa dei Tessuti or simply “House of Fabrics” in English.

Inside the shop were shelves and shelves of some of the most incredible fabrics I’d ever seen. I’ve definitely been to bigger fabric shops, but certainly nothing like this in terms of quality, brands and history."

After wandering the aisles and frantically taking photos, she continues,

"In the end, I had a long conversation and interviewed the manager, Mr. Andrea Spulcioni, who has worked at the shop for more than 40 years. Casa dei Tessuti dates from 1929 when it was founded by Egisto Romoli, a native of  Florence. The store has been the inspiration and source of many designers from around the world."
