Modern Fabrics reclaimed textiles
Modern Fabrics is an online store selling designer fabrics rescued from the cutting room floors of high-end furniture factories. They scoop up gorgeous textiles from the likes of Knoll, Maharam, Architex and more—usually sold only to the trade—and then make them available to everyone at 50-75% off the list price. Some are still a hefty price tag for us commoners, but definitely better. And it's great to think that these could go live at your house instead of a landfill.

I work with those fabrics every day so I can verify that the prices offered by Modern Fabrics are a very good deal!
such useful stuff this morning... thanks!
Seeing fabrics like this makes me wish I sewed. Or, that I want to sew.
I agree w/ Elizabeth - I double-checked pricing against Maharam's website. Modern Fabrics' pricing is great. I work w/ these fabrics every day as well.
Hey... be careful who you're calling a "commoner"!
Oh, excuse me.

These are beautiful prints! I will have to check them out for my projects. I usually work with vintage fabrics (see this post http://whereisthehombrellah.blogspot.com/2010/01/love-cats.html) but this definitely inspires me to add a modern twist.

A shout out to Modern Fabrics - LOVE THEM. I am fortunate to live here in Charlotte where I can visit their shop anytime. Spread the word...they are great :)
Jessica, I used your fabrics in both of my children's room for drapery and a chair. They turned out great -- thank you for the awesome designs!!
Aw, I'm honored!
Thanks for the heads up on Modern Fabrics!!
For anyone in the Bay Area, there is a nonprofit group called FabMo that does the same thing (gathers up samples from designers that would otherwise be thrown away), but they give them away for free once a month!
