  hey there..

  umm.. I'm not too sure about what's a felt. But this topic is related to art and craft, so I suggest Bras Basah...

  i would not reccomend going to bras basah. because the only shop in bras basah complex is art friend, and their art and crafts materials are not cheap. felt is over-priced in my opinion.

  if you want fabric, go china town people's park complex level 2. they will open from 12pm-7pm usually. take your time to walk down the rows of shops, the shopkeepers will advice you. credibility wise, they are safest to buy from. least spoilage in fabrics and most likely wont cheap your $.

  otherwise, u can go to arab st. but when you go there, make sure u patronise from the shops that u see chinese uncles manning. try not to get from the other shops as they are not the "real" fabric shops; most are tailors.

  if not, try textile centre, but u would need to buy in bulk.

  daiso fabrics are affordable, but dont u think they comes in odd sizes or shapes? dont it make u feel difficult/restricted ?

  spotlight have the most expensive fabrics in singapore. haha.

   

  since its just a hobby phase for you, why not try searching for basic sewing books on national library level 8?

  if you are more keen onto sewing, then probably u can buy books from Basheer at bras basah complex. or probably take up some enrichment courses.
