Fabric Anyone? Shop Three Chickadees Textiles!














Folks, you heard it here first! Three Chickadees launched its second website earlier today at www.threechickadeestextiles.com. Three Chickadees Textiles will be exclusively devoted to fabric sales, and we'll eventually add ribbon and hardware to the product mix.

The whole idea started when we began to receive inquiries on our accessory site (www.threechickadees.com) from people that wanted to purchase our patchwork madras fabric for their own use. We had difficulty finding this fabric ourselves which is what led to our decision to import it directly from India. To accommodate the fabric requests, we started selling it by the yard in our EBAY store.

My partner, Lisa (also a fellow blogger at Preppy Days) is the one who had the initial vision for a separate fabric site. We started our IT people working on the programming, and purchased many great new patchwork fabrics from our Indian supplier. A few of them are already up on the site, and there are more to follow within the next two weeks. The photo up top is of our Nantucket Summer pattern. It's one of my favorites!

Since we know that there is already a demand for patchwork madras fabric, we decided to start with that material. Eventually we'll add exquisite fabrics from France and Germany. I just love the German Farbenmix fabrics, so those might have to be next...

There are also some other exciting things happening behind the scenes at Three Chickadees that I can't talk about yet! Stay tuned as we may have more big news soon!
