G Street Fabrics & Home Decorating Center, Falls Church

For three generations, G Street Fabrics & Home Decorating Center has stood as a wonderland of creative possibilities. When David Greenzaid founded the company in 1942, he couldn't have known that more than 70 years later his children and grandchildren would still be there. The family helps creative types from Maryland to Virginia repair, replace, and create apparel, upholstery, and drapery. Designers can peruse a massive selection of fabric bolts and embellishments, such as heavily beaded tulle. Meanwhile, folks just looking to learn a little about making their own clothes can jump into classes that include sewing for beginners up through advanced sessions such as Create Your Favorite Swimsuit.
