The selection of fabrics and expertise of their staff makes it a go to place. Back in the early 70s I went in with my vogue designer suit patten's bought beautiful wool gabardines, that had a silky and lustrous hand feel. I made a wardrobe I could never have afforded otherwise.
Went back a few years ago, and it's still a treasure trove for fabric junkies.

I love, love, love this store. The employees are always about helping you find what works best for you, and your needs. They give honest opinions and suggestions based on what you want. My partner and I wanted to have a chair reupholstered, and we were told that our original fabric choice would wear quicker than other (cheaper) options. This honesty is why I will keep coming back, and find excuses to spend my money here.

Great selection of fabrics and very friendly owner but extremely rude and ignorant employee. Myself and another lady came in at the same time around 4:40 - 20 minutes before close. The man working reluctantly let us in (as he was standing outside the door with the lock in hand counting down the minutes to close). He proceeded to complain about how "customers" are so inconsiderate coming in 20 minutes before close when they have been open all day long and how we need to be out by 5 and can come back the next day BEFORE closing time. At one point I asked how much a fabric was and he said

I too have fallen victim to Pinterest projects and found a fun project that required some fabrics. Having no idea where to start I headed down to 4th street and happened upon B.Wilk Fabrics. I'm so glad they were my first (and only) stop. Huge selection of great fabrics, but more importantly really great people. All of the staff I met was super friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and funny! Made this overwhelming experience a great one! I highly recommend!

I have a confession to make. I am a fabric junkie. A fabric junkie who doesn't sew. I know, it's a problem. I go into B Wilk. My eyes dart around. My hands start to shake. I resist the urge to just jump into the piles of fabric bolts leaning against a wall and laugh giddily.
This is a fabric junkie's heaven.
B Wilk is one of the original, old style fabric stores on Fabric Row. My grandmother got fabrics here. My South Philly Italian Aunts get their fabric here. It's what Fabric Row was always, and I hope always will be.

Really great customer service!
I had purchased a groupon that was nearing its expiration date and as i really did not have a project in mind yet, I called the store to ask if they could possibly extend the date for me. A gentleman answered the phone and said " no problem" and said that I could use it at any time, he was very pleasant and accommodating.
A few weeks later I popped by the store looking for fabric to upholster a funky chair I am working on...
A woman by the name of Mona asked if I needed help and stated she was there if I should i need anything.
No hovering or stalking

This is my favorite fabric store in Philadelphia, Best for upholstery, curtains fabric. Large selection. Don't forget to go upstairs where there are bolts of fabric on racks. They can recommend people do to upholstery --some excellent suppliers, as well as drapes etc. right down the street at John's. Friendly, totally professional. All the fabric is priced by the yard, and they help you match or suggest options.

Very nice selection of upholstery and drapery fabrics, and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. When I came in with a coffee and asked to put it down on their desk so I could look for fabric hands-free, they said "You can do anything you like in here!" So nice!
As far as I've noticed, the prices are a little higher than other stores on Fabric Row, but that's subjective since the quality of fabrics can be pretty diverse from the different stores. Still, the prices are better than chains like Calico Corners, etc.

My mother and a friend came down to Philly one day to hang out on Fabric Row, and our first stop was B Wilk. I think the woman downstairs thought she was selling used cars.
"I'll make you a deal, OK? Whaddya want, I'll make you a deal?" and then proceeded to follow us around like an annoying kid that keeps asking, "Why?"
I made the mistake of going upstairs to wander around. The guy up there offered what I thought was a friendly hello, and then proceeded to vomit his entire life story in approximately 15 minutes. When I woke up from my nap, he asked when the baby
