Show Me Some Stripes, Please

Day 339.
Show Me Some Stripes, Please

I am taking a long weekend and am home today on a day of vacation. I've been looking forward to working on some craft projects and things in my sewing room. I'm excited to have some new fabric choices to play around with. A friend has started customizing some patterns for printing on fabric and she introduced me to a great service where you can basically have any design you like printed on the fabric of your choice. It's called Fabric on Demand and it is a really cool service...

Of course I was curious about the origins of their fabric, so I looked on their frequently asked questions page and found this information...

"All of our fabrics are from American mills with the exception of the fleece and suede which has been shipped from China."

So since I am not purchasing fleece and suede anyway I am glad to know the fabrics I am working with are from American mills. Their website indicates the main offices are in California and their printing and shipping facilities are in South Carolina. It's been great to experiment with new fabrics...today I'm working with stripes...

 

Time to do some sewing!
