A few of you may be aware that I have a slight addiction to fabric. It makes me drool, starts a twitch in my right eyeball, and has an unfortunate effect on my wallet. Thanks to blogging about this addiction, however, I realised that I'm not alone in experiencing these symptoms!
I recently shared with you some fabric that I bought whilst on my travels. The reason that this fabric is so special to me is that it's organic, fair trade, vegetable dyed, hand-woven (check out a video of hand-weaving here!) cotton that's created by a Women's Organisation in Laos. I strive to make all of my choices related to my business and my crafting hobby as environmentally and socially conscious as I can, so this really inspired me!
Since posting that blog, and the following one about Molly the Mouse (who is being made from this luscious fabric), I've received a number of emails asking me whether I could source some more of the fabric and make it available to some of you. I'm still in Asia and it's definitely a possibility, but before I make my way to Laos, I wanted to know what the level of interest really is!
Below, I've posted some pictures of the fabric with a description and the prices for each of them. I've also provided some pictures and prices of other cute fabric I've found whilst in Asia, to see if you're interested in any of that.
Please let me know if you'd like any of it as soon as possible, as I fly out in two weeks! If there's enough interest, I'll see what I can do to get some more in that time. I can't guarantee anything but I would sure love to share this wonderfully eco-conscious fabric with as many people as possible.

Gosh - I love so many of those fabrics but at $25 to $40CD a yard plus $20 or so for postage they're wayyyyyyyyyyy out of my price range.
Too bad!
Pretty pretty!
very unusual fabrics (for me), and I love the last one most!!!!
I'm practising extreme fabric restraint (since I promised I would just lay off the purchases for a while and turn to the stash) but since you mention it, this girly would LOVE a metre of the unbleached seeded cotton weave! Wow. Am officially crossing fingers you're coming home like a pack horse. Also can't believe how speedily nearly three months has whizzzzzzed by...
How cruel...in these economic times....how on earth do I choose "wisely"?? I don't want to choose wisely. I want to get all that my excited little heart desires. Alas the bank says..choose wisely. I Will email you the details. Thanks for doing this Sandra. Peta
