My son and his family live in Ankara Turkey. Your video is giving me a good idea of what life is like for them. The stores are gorgeous! The fabric is stunning!! Thank you for sharing!!
Turkey is known for the good quality textiles👍🏽in my country Turkish cotton jersey is one of the most popular choices for hobby sewing. Not exactly cheap, but usually considered worth the price.
Thank you for this video :) As an Istanbul resident, I may say that you mostly visited Osmaniye - great place to buy clothes but I also like to give some other places where you might see more fabric selection and also more crafty supplies (like patches, yarns, sewing supplies, beads, jewelry supplies) is Marputcular Carsisi and the other shops around this area called Tahtakale. You may use Mahmutpasa gate to leave Grand bazzar to reach this area - and it is downhill this way :) The shops are closed on Sundays and extremely crowded on Saturdays.
Hi thank u for this information I’m thinking of going to Istanbul this Friday 🙂… I’m a designer do u have and recommendation for lace fabric bead fabrics sequin for retail for unfordable price … was looking for an area which has so many options to buy fabric, thank u so much
@@semharamha Hi, Tahtakale might be great place for lace and beaded fabrics because this area where bride to-bes shopping area. They buy their wedding supplies from here. (and very economical) You may go to Grand bazaar and leave the Grand bazaar from Mahputpasa gate. (Grand bazaar is huge! be careful and ask for the gate, don't worry, people love to help here, but in case, ask couple of people to be sure :)) You may use your navigation too... And Osmaniye is also great place to buy fabrics too. You may visit both but you need each day for both places... these shopping areas are huge... lots of shops there... Have a great trip :)
YOU ARE THE BEST @mainili6761 👍👍👍👍👏👏👏I AM A FABRIC RETAILER, I AM ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR WHOLESALE. GOING INB 2 WEEKS TIME. WHICH AREA IS WHOLESALE SIDE PLEASE
Whew girl ! What a beautiful fabric haul! Since I'm only buying natural fabrics for my sensitive skin, I loved each choice! I followed you for a long while and 🎉 congratulations on the growth of your channel and you're living your best life Aisha✌🏾 Blessings from NYC
Wow, I thought Dubai had some incredible shops but I agree the selection in Istanbul was better. The embroidered cottons and laces! Gorgeous! I could have bought that entire rack of the orange ones, or maybe a green or yellow as well as the orange? I think the white with metallic is called a clip-dot. I'm wearing a me-made caftan as I watch this. It's a cotton voile in a pink print which might be slightly loud for a dress but always makes me happy at home. I used Liesl Gibson's class on creativebug to make it and wrote down the method (no pattern needed just a neck facing and drawstring channel) so I can make another sometime. Thanks for sharing your experience. I'd love to go to Turkey, buy fabric, and stay in a riad someday.
Thank you for this..a city I will put on my list for a visit ..I am of to Barcelona in a few weeks and fabric shopping there looks ...amazing... allowing myself 1 full day to shop for beautiful fabric... so excited...please share your makes ..Dawn x
OHMYGAWWD! THE FABULOUS "FABRIC CANDY" OF ISTANBUL! HUNNY, I WOULD GET IN FABRIC TROUBLE IN THAT STORE! (I WANT THAT, I WANT THAT, AND I WANT THAT TOO!)😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
How do you keep track of your fabrics and what you want to make with them? I find it difficult with my modest collection even using a sewing journal, but your collection is huge compared to mine! 😅
Now I want to go Istanbul, I got swindled in a taxi there so wasn't going to go back. But now, all the fabric.... 😊I'd like to know if you thought it was good value... I assume so, as unique. Great vlog !
OK... I'm not even halfway through this vlog and if you didn't buy some of that FABULOUS fancy fabric I will be so disappointed! Even if you don't think you'll have a place to wear it.... wear it to the supermarket!!! (I'll watch the rest now.... thank you for attending my rant.)

Omfg, I was just talking to a coworker at my apparel design internship how I missed your fabric hauls around the world. DHDJDJSDK
