Modern Organic Fabrics is a favorite Etsy shop of mine, and now Melanie has just opened her own independent online shop. It’s been exciting to see so many new lines of organic fabric entering the market over the past couple of years and Melanie offers a nice selection, including the new fabrics pictured above from Cloud9 Fabrics, Daisy Janie, Birch Fabrics and Westfalenstoffe. To celebrate her opening, she is generously offering a $50 gift certificate for you! Here’s some more information about Melanie and her shop (from her about page):
Melanie O’Brien is an energetic fabric-aficionado who has turned her focus to organic materials. As she stocks her shop she is searching out bright prints, colors and great design in organic quilting cottons, knits and more. She is also on the lookout for the best patterns and tutorials for utilizing these fabulous fabrics.
Melanie is the mother to three young girls and she works from her home in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area. Before opening Modern Organic Fabrics she was the voice behind The Fabric Shopper blog.
To enter, simply take a look at the shop here, then come back and leave a comment about your favorite things. This giveaway is open internationally. Please enter before Sunday, March 14 (midnight eastern).


































Once again a great giveaway! I love all the Cloud 9 fabrics she carries, and seeing what will be coming soon, I think I’ll definitely check her shop over the next weeks.
Thanks for sharing!
My favourite things…..
- finding S. bouncing up and down in her crib, smiling with sleep tousled hair after a nap
- imagining and creating
- slipping out to Chapters to explore, sip and chill (alone!!)
- sharing a quiet meal with my love
- sharing a not-so-quiet meal with all of my loves!
I am fairly new to sewing, but I’m armed with a borrowed sewing machine and loads of optimism. With spring coming, I have been daydreaming about making a pinafore dress for my 18 mo and also a lightweight blanket for a new nephew. I love the stripes and sweet girl prints. Good luck with the new shop! I hope to be back soon with tales of success…
Lovely lovely lovely! Fab ‘Meadow’ for an original 50s sundress pattern I’ve had sitting on the shelf for a while gathering dust, and ‘grey floral bouquet’ for a 1940s dress pattern I keep meaning to try out too. They’d just be the perfect fabrics. Great online store! Karen
I’m a big fan of birds so I have to say that Flock is my favorite print. I’m also loving the Circa 50 prints for my boy. Thank You for the chance to win.
