Organic Cotton from India

CERTIFIED Organic Cotton, grown and woven in India

Cotton plain weave fabric, very well woven 2/40's count thread warp and weft. Mid-weight, soft hand, drapes really well.

There are no finishes or additives, this is 100% pure cotton.

"Besides my own super sensitive hand, I have had this cotton 'sniffed' by a dear friend who grew up in cotton country. "That smells like cotton!" means more to me than any certification, which can always be bought. Also, I've been poisoned by Chinese "certified" OG cotton that was heavily laced with Spandex, which out-gasses cyano-acrylic and will definately make you sick, even if your nose doesn't work and you don't smell it. This is 100% pure cotton, of the best quality on the planet!" -Cheryl

Certified organically grown by Skal, a trustworthy European certifying agency.

Naturally dyed colours, including Blackest Black and a true "Turkey Red" (the red-red of old quilts) are in stock, and "ON HAND" colours are now catalogued on their own page! (All are 100% Naturally Dyed, rich, fast and alive colours which are produced by hand, and are unique and available no where else. ) We also have a true "ECO BLEACH" white.

The natural white of this cotton is exceptionally clean and clear.
