My sweet husband sent me that site. They will print any design you want on
60" wide cotton fabric. Like quilting cotton. They keep costs down by
only doing one kind of cotton and I guess they can get to orders within a
couple days.
I told him it was really brave of him to send me that link. lol He said he
was a little scared when he emailed it but he knew I would really think it
was nifty. heh heh He heard an interview with the folks that run the
company on NPR.

No Fair! Like we don't already have enough fabric stash,
now we can go completely mad and design our own. :-}
Beverly, wishing I had known about that for the jewel-tone
fabric I was looking for a few months back. Although I'm
not really into 100% cotton most of the time.

How are you feeling? Did everything go well? I've been losing some posts
in all the junk here lately. So if you already told the whole story, I'm
sorry I missed it. Hope you feel like dancing soon!! :)

Years ago when I went to Carson City every month for a machine knitting
club, I knew a woman (who also attended) whose job/profession was to
design the fabric used for uniforms. You notice that sometimes you go
places where the employees are wearing uniforms made of a printed
fabric, with a theme for the business? Sometimes the fabric is used for
tablecloths, napkins, curtains, aprons, etc. She did those, then the
fabric company printed her designs onto the fabric, which then went to
the uniform producers. I always thought that was a really interesting
job, and an unusual one, but great for a graphics designer. She worked
at home, she didn't work "steady" but seemed quite happy with it.
