Laura, I scanned their website and it looks interesting. I wonder how expensive their fabric is to purchase. Thanks for sharing.

I checked out a few of the prices and it's a little steep for me. But I only took a quick look at printed knits. Other things may be a little more in line with my ever tightening budget.

I've been looking for organic cotton locally, and like most anything "specialty" it's not to be found.
Thank you for the link!

Looks like really nice fabric, however at an average of $20/yard that's out of my price range. Thanks for the link, I've bookmarked it-you never know when the day will come I want something only they have

That's one thing about the organic stuff, it's certainly not cheap! For something really special I may take the plunge, but then DH's idea of a night out is at the drag races!
