New Indie Clothing Patterns and Craft Kits in ShopHello Friends! I hope you all had a beautiful Independence Day weekend!

Since I now know that so many of you enjoy making clothing, I'm w...

A Heartfelt THANK YOU! 40% Off EVERYTHING for the Whole Month of NovemberI hate the term "Black Friday" since the sales are no longer just on the Friday after Thanksgiving but continual. I also despise that "Shop Small Saturday" comes after the big box retailers have exhaused consumer spending money with a lot of things we really didn't need... or even really want. I will be running a major sale for the rest of this month. 40% off of everything. Honestly, these sorts of sales are typically very difficult for small businesses like mine to o...

The Latest News from Organic Fabric Company (Coupon code inside!)Hello Friends!It's been almost forever since my last email! I have so much news to share with you all, but I will try to keep it all short and sweet. In the Summer of 2020, we had to close down our lovely storefront and moved into a temporary location while waiting for local restrictions to be lifted while keeping an eye out for a new location to become available. After an additional year of restrictions coming and going and coming back again, our goal of securing a new location in San...
Say "No" to Bamboo (Viscose) and RayonHave you ever wondered why we don't carry bamboo fabrics? If you have, you are not alone. I'm surprised that I didn't think to write this blog sooner since I get at least one email a month asking why we don't carry bamboo. Bamboo is considered a semi-synthetic product that comes from a natural source (kind of like plant-based plastics). Bamboo requires immense amounts of water and chemical processing to become bamboo viscose. The primary chemical concerns are the use of So...

The openings and closings followed by more soft openings and then closings again have been too tumultuous and volatile. Organic Fabric Company is more than just a fabric shop...
