Default Fabric Row Hours?

Does anyone here know offhand the hours of the shops on fabric row? If not, is there any way that I can find out without calling every store?

I know a lot of them during the week close at 4 or 4:30 but I was wondering about Saturday. I was in the area last Saturday around 3:30 and it looked like most of the shops were closed.

Thanks!

A lot of the shops, but certainly not all, are closed on Saturday for religious observations.

I think going early on Saturday is your best bet. When I was going back and forth there for my wedding gown materials, they were often closed/closing before their posted hours said during the week. Saturday morning was the best time to go. They had great stuff that was hard to find. Swarovski crystals, gorgeous lace, etc. Good luck.

Actually, I checked one of the stores last week, and they had late Wednesday night hours. This store was open till 7:00. Now, I can't remember which store it was, and I don't know if any of the other places have late Wednesday hours, but many stores all over Philly are open late on Wednesday, so there's a decent chance that other fabric stores will be open. Also, most (or at least some) are open on Saturday. I would get there before 4:00 though. There's a website for the row, but I don't think it lists hours.
