Green Options

Betz White and Spoonflower are teaming up, and they want to see how you Sew Green!

To celebrate the release of her book Sewing Green, Betz white designed a special Sewing Green print on organic cotton just for Spoonflower. Not only are they running a deal on the fabric itself, they’re holding a contest where you can win your choice of book from STC Craft, the company that publishes Sewing Green. Here are the deets!

Digital textile printing now available on organic cotton from Spoonflower!

I sprang to my feet when I saw the message in my e-mail from Spoonflower this morning.  After much urging by eco icons including Betz White, Harmony Susalla and customers, they now offer digital textile printing on organic cotton!  The new 4.5 oz organic cotton sateen is certified organic by GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard).  It has a 58-inch [...]

One way to minimize waste in craft and quilting projects is to have your own custom fabric printed in exactly the amount you need.  On demand fabric printers have made a big splash in the craft community over the past year with Spoonflower getting the bulk of blog press.  They certainly got our attention when they proposed adding an organic cotton option.  Spoonflower’s current offering is 100% Moda Cotton and they are currently testing an upholstery-weight cotton sateen.

Fabric On Demand is another service based on the same concept.  Their price is slightly higher for 100% cotton than Spoonflower, but they currently have 4 other fabric options including fleece, duck cloth, a poly/cotton broadcloth, and a micro-denier suede.  You can order a free swatch sample of each.  Fabric On Demand also allows you to order unlimited continuous yardage, where as Spoonflower allows up to 3 yards.
