1. Zipit zippers on Etsy (etsy.com/shop/zipit) for YKK zippers in a multitude of colors and sizes for pennies each. They also have zipper heads and pulls. Lightening fast service and you can custom order. They also have a blog. Love them!

2. "Spoonflower" a custom fabric printing site. Debbie Morel has used it for basic cotton fabric for her quilts. The fabric has a beautiful hand after printing. They can also print onto Minky type fleece, canvas, chiffon, denim, jersey, sport lycra, etc. Also wallpaper, kitchen fabric items and bedding. You can create an image on the computer or tablet. Or you can scan a photo of your creation and then upload it to "Spoonflower" to be printed. They also have a very large library of submissions from other artists that you can choose to print. And you can offer your submission for use by others for which you get a small commission. For more information go to spoonflower.com and click on "How it Works".
3. Terry Gilmore suggests you check out Judy Kissinger site on Facebook: Fit Nice Sewing Sisters, or sign up for her newsletters on fitnicesystem.com . You will also find tons of free videos and information on fit and alterations and notices of book/pattern/notions sales!
