Know that we:
- Focus on US-made fabrics, working to revive the US textile industry with our new American Grown•Spun•Milled initiative
-
Only offer undyed or low-impact-dyed fabrics (and have a wonderful collection of colorgrown cottons, where the cotton actually grows in shades of brown or green)
-
Source only eco-friendly fabrics and notions (and no greenwashing either - we won't sell "eco-friendly bamboo fabric" until and unless the process to make it is truly sustainable)
-
Offer a special line of organic cotton fabrics - the ML Marsh Collection: Organic Designer Fabrics - created by a designer, for designers (but yes, non-designers can use it too!)
-
Reduce our carbon footprint with a location in Asheville, NC, centrally located to what remains of the domestic textile industry (see our press release)
-
Are able to produce fabrics, from thread to finishing, within 100 miles of that location
- Think everyone should "go green for the whole nine yards!" ... and we work to make that both possible and enjoyable, too
