The Dream Team

The summer issue of Living Crafts magazine contains the "Complete Guide to Organic Fabrics." -- In this 12-page article by Fiona Duthie, you’ll find out about the leading brands of organic fabric companies, where they are produced, where they are printed, their certification(s), as well as a nice list of organic fabric retailers. In addition, they offer you a side-bar on Selection Criteria by Tara Boyd and Winnie Culp of Nearsea Naturals.

As someone who has been working since 2005 to break organic cottons reputation of beautiful shades of oatmeal and granola this was one of those issues that warmed my heart!  This multi-page spread features 13 different organic cotton fabric companies!  Big thanks to editor Pardis and writer Fiona for taking on this project and helping educate and promote the use of organically grown fabrics.

To help you find them all, here's a link to the 13 companies mentioned in the article:
