American Made Brand Fabric

Fabric that is 100% sourced and manufactured in America you say!? Heck yes! 


We are super excited to bring you this beautiful pallet of cotton solids from American Made Brand! AMB's mission is to reach back to and revive America's proud tradition of textiles. 

The entire process behind this beautiful fabric takes place right here in the USA. Farmers grow their cotton across southern and western states, then it is transported to local mills where it is spun into smooth beautiful cotton yarn. The yarn then travels to one of the oldest operating weavers in the country, and finally the yardage is dyed into a spectrum of stunning solids by yet another American company! 


To celebrate our love for American textiles, American Made Brand is hosting a competition: Farm To Fabric Challenge. They want to hear, through your quilt, what it means to you to have fabric production brought back to the USA. Quilts that celebrate the "Farm to Fabric" theme and that are made entirely from AMB fabric can be entered into this juried exhibition. Check out more details here.


We can't wait to see what you make with this beautiful, homegrown cotton fabric!

Pendleton Wool Fabrics now at Fancy Tiger Crafts!

Fancy Tiger Crafts is now carrying Pendleton woolen fabrics! We'll be celebrating tonight from 6-9pm, so please come by and be the first to take a gander at these special 100% American made, historic fabrics. In addition to being the first to get your hands on Pendleton woolen fabric, we have lots of amazing door prizes to give away from the nice folks at Pendleton!


Jaime has designed a bag pattern for the Pendleton blanket-weight fabrics which showcases the woven designs perfectly. Receive a free copy of the pattern with your Pendleton purchase. We will also be debuting Fancy Tiger Crafts's own new line of  leather bag handles and closures, which are used in the Pendleton bag pattern.


Pendleton has been milling beautiful wool fabric in Oregon since 1909. We are proud to bring Pendleton fabrics to Denver so that you can bask in their woolly beauty and sew to your hearts content!

Pendleton's 100% wool shirting fabrics are a lightweight wool that is perfect for blouses, dresses and especially men's shirts.


The heavier weight Pendleton jacquard blanket fabrics are woven so that both sides are different, but equally beautiful. These fabrics are perfect for sewing exquisite coats, bags, blankets, and home goods. Can you imagine a chair covered in these beauties?









We can't wait to see what you create with these special fabrics. Come on in to see and feel them in person!
