Ooga Booga Prints, 100% Cotton Interlock Knit Fabric

The popularity of the cute Ooga Booga monster print fabric seems to be spreading internationally, but the availability of the fabric locally is declining.
(I am trying to procure as much as I can, as I find it and can afford it, so I can have it available for you.)

The biggest contributor to the declining availability of this print is that it is not mass produced. It is printed in the US, in 1000 yard lots per color scheme. This makes it hard for the small on-line specialty fabric stores, such as myself, to come up with the printing costs to have just one color scheme printed. The best way to do this was through co-op buying groups, where each of us would purchase a roll of 60 - 90 yards. It also kept the cost down. Now most of the co-ops have quit buying Ooga Booga prints, leaving those of us who want it out of luck. They want to spend their money on different prints for a larger variety of inventory. I can't blame them, as I would like a large variety of prints too. But, I don't want to quit carrying the Ooga Booga's.

I have the Ooga Booga prints available in 11 oz. 100% Cotton Interlock Knit and some in 13 oz. 80/20 Cotton/Polyester Velour.

Here are the Ooga Booga prints that I have in stock. (Adding links and captions to the pictures isn't working, so click the links above for the type of fabric you are looking for).



 

Breaking the FDA code about food coloring safety

Breaking the FDA code about food coloring safety
For decades, health officials have insisted that these artificial food colorings pose no danger. Their basic message has been: "Don't worry about a thing! Eat up!" But it turns out there's a code in that message. And it's an admission that food coloring has a clear downside -- especially for kids. Read the article.

Miracle Noodle Shirataki - Zero Calorie Noodles!

Two New Heavy Weight Cotton/Lycra Prints



Cherries, Cotton/Lycra Jersey Knit Fabric



This popular fabric is formed by blending 10 percent Lycra with 90 percent cotton. This combination results in a soft, absorbent material with just the correct amount of stretch. The beauty of the product is not only that it allows movement, but also that the garment springs back to its original size and shape immediately. Lycra helps the stretched areas, such as the knees of the pants, to spring back to their original size, thus avoiding the dreaded "baggy knee" syndrome.



DAISIES, Cotton/Lycra Jersey Knit Fabric



It is the ultimate 4-way stretch fabric for dance-wear, skating attire, athletic apparel (compression shirts, etc.), costumes and even swim-wear. It is great for manufacturing anything from Babywear to ladies' panties, bras, sleepwear and undershirts. This blend is also popular in the T-shirt industry because the Lycra prevents the cotton from shrinking to some extent, helps shirts maintain their original shape, and also alleviates the wrinkled appearance of all-cotton T-shirts.

Available by the yard, FQ (Fat Quarter) or any length by request.

Knits are getting even harder to find and the price of cotton has gone up significantly. Cotton Interlock Knit took a $3 per yard jump in the past few weeks. I will have to raise my prices too, but not just yet. 

With that being said... these are some of the Interlock Knits I found:
