Does anyone know of an online source for organic fabrics such as flannel, t-shirt jersey, lightweight terrytowel, etc? I can find some doing a google search, but would prefer to purchase from a company that somebody has experience with.
Thanks a bunch!

Hi!
I know of a few not only organic but natural and eco-friendly sources. Haven't been able to order from them yet, but plan to in the very near future!

Aurora Silk - great selection of cottons, silks, and other natural fibers. A bit pricey, but they have some good stuff, like "Peace Silk," obtained after the moth has exited the cocoon.

Dharma Trading - great stuff, they even have organic cotton denim.

Silk Road Fabrics - purveyors of delicious silks and organic cottons
http://www.srfabrics.com/

Again, I know the google search is a royal pain (I know, I've had to do it all over again because my old hard drive crashed, and I lost all my bookmarks!) but it's your best bet. Takes a lot of sifting, but there's some real gems in there. Hope that helps!
