I got good news, and I've got GREAT news.
The good news......
Remember our
blog that we posted back in December 08' encouraging NY Giants fans worldwide to contact Fabric Traditions textile mill and get the ball rolling out on some much needed but never printed NY Giants Fleece fabric? Well, when I walked into work this morning after a hotter than most April weekend spent soaking up some much needed sun in my back yard, my boss tells me that he just got the word that Fabric Traditions has finally decided to start print on our long awaited NY Giants fleece.
The GREAT news.....
J&O Fabrics will be one of the first fabric stores to carry it and offer it to our wonderful customers around the world at our regular discounted price!
Coincidence? I don't think so.
After years of patient waiting and wanting, an article was written on behalf of Giants fans young and old, and a movement began. We encouraged you to call on the phones and bang on the email doors of Fabric Traditions to voice your demands so that endless Christmas and birthday wish lists could be fulfilled, and now just a few months later the door is finally opening.
Crafters far and wide, start dusting off your project blueprints. Quilters, get your machines ready. And NY Giants fans, rally up. Thanks to you, NY Giants Fleece is on its way!

Starting in late October, the calls for warm winter polar fleeces start pouring in at J&O Fabrics. Seems everyone from our urban retail specialty shops to our suburban housewives have the same idea in mind…creating unique one of a kind fleece outerwear, crafts and accessories for the upcoming season and satisfying the never ending demand from their friends, families and customers. From major league sport divisions like
NFL,
NBA and
MLB, to
college teams,
military, and
novelty prints, fleece is the fabric of choice when the winter winds start to blow.
One demand that has yet to be met in the mayhem of requests is the desire for NY Giants polar fleece. With thousands of fans nationwide pining for this highly prized and sought after material, it makes you wonder why the fabric mills haven’t jumped on the demand bandwagon and printed a few designs out for these pleading football fans. And when I say fabric mills, I am speaking mainly of Fabric Traditions. As the only manufacturer of licensed NFL and MBL fabrics, Fabric Traditions provides a majority of our craft and textile goods stores with cottons and fleeces for teams like the Philadelphia Phillies, Boston Red Sox, NY Mets, San Francisco 49er’s and a plethora more. When asked by some of the store owners and buyers alike, why they won’t throw their potential customers a bone, they simply stated that “It would not be cost efficient to print the Giants fleece, since the demand is not high enough”. Well, as a customer service rep at one of the top online fabric outlets, I’m here to say “Wake up!”
Every day we hear the requests and sighs of disappointed grandmothers, crafters and diehard fans, as their dreams become deferred with the repeated answer…” No Giants fleece”. A hopeful search on EBay, Google, Yahoo or even the ancient but still in production Yellow Pages Book, reaps a search left unsatisfied. NO GIANTS FLEECE! With a demand for goods like this, it makes hungry entrepreneurs and greedy money makers want to sell their possessions to start their own textile mills just to reap the benefits and grow rich quick; until the authorities catch up.
So what’s the solution to the no-sew fleece throw on your husband’s Christmas wish list, or your little brother’s fleece pillow set listed on his #1 Giants fan request letter? Keep the calls comin’! The squeaky wheel gets oiled and the power is in the people, so keep the calls and emails coming. Better yet, contact Fabric Traditions direct. Let your voice be heard! This is your team and you are their fans. Say it loud, “WE WANT THE GIANTS FLEECE AND WE WANT IT NOW!!”
For your convenience, we listed the contact information for Fabric Traditions. You won't be able to order directly from them, but you're voice will be heard. Give them a call today and let them know native New Yorkers and Giant's fans nationwide are waiting for their red, white and blue!
