Looking for an organic fabric retailer, Canada or US. But don't want to have to purchase bolts, just some yardage!

Laura, I am not really sure what organic fabric is, but then most of the time I don't understand the term organic. All I can think of is hemp. If I were looking for hemp, I know I have seen some at Fabricland, but I would also check out health food type of places and places that sell hemp clothing. The clothing sales people may know a source.... if you get the owner, of course. :wink:

These folks are in Texas, but I'm sure there's an e-tailer in Canada for organics by the yard as well. I haven't purchased from them--yet--but I really appreciate the thorough product information they provide, and I have refered to their site to help me plan my projects. (I kind of owe them some business at this point, even though I have a loyal soft spot for the local retailer!)
