Microfiber is a fiber with less than 1 denier per filament and is used to make non-woven and knitted textiles.

While many Americans will be taking advantage of the Independence Day holiday by gearing up and celebrating a fun filled weekend of cook outs, fire works, baseball games, trips to the shore, or that much needed rest and relaxation, others will be remembering the signed commemoration that made us officially free from Great Britian over 200 years ago with parades, speeches and gatherings.
In honor of all the activities we as Americans have incorporated and designated for the July 4th weekend, J&O Fabrics offers a plethora of cotton novelty prints that seem to capture the American culture in all its glory. From baseball prints and USA flag designs, to backyard bbq and beach themes, each fabric has a story to tell and each story has a fabric waiting to reflect it.
Hailed as one of the most sought after contemporary artists in Britain today, artisan Faye Whitaker just can’t help but take us back to an age of innocence and sweet surrender with her Friendship by the Sea line for Elizabeth’s Studio. From the moment you rest your weary eyes upon her works of seaside inspired art, the stress lines and worry wrinkles of a life far too hectic, start to quietly fade away. You are instantly transported back to the days of your youth, where sunsets seemed never ending, and the ocean would sing you her sweet lullaby until the sandman swept you gently away.
