dream green

We are now offering Dream Green Quilt Batting by Volksfaden. Dream Green is made entirely from recycled plastic bottles. The bottles are cut into chips, washed, melted and pressed into fine polyester fibers. Processed using the close-the-loop recycling chain it is pro-environment in both its raw materials and its manufacturing process. Each pound of Dream Green Batting keeps 10 plastic bottles out of the landfills!
We also have added some sweet Portobellopixie sewing patterns to our ever growing assortment of patterns. This cute line of patterns is designed by textile designer Sandi Henderson the original Portobellopixie.
