Special Feature: Modern Yardage

This post may contain affiliate or brand partner links. Read our full disclosure here.

Back in August I got to go on a quilting retreat. The very first quilt top I worked on was all fabric from Modern Yardage. I fell in love with the feel and quality of the fabric I got… and I’m hooked! I was so excited for April and the Modern Yardage team, when I found out about their nomination for Martha Stewart’s American Made contest. Now they’ve made it to the final round! Squeeeeeeeeee!! I asked April to drop by and share more about Modern Yardage, what they do and the contest they are  in!

Modern Yardage Made it to the Final round!

I’m glad to have the chance to write for you on Jennifer’s blog today. I’m April, the owner of Modern Yardage, a new fabric company that prints fabric on-demand as you order it. We are unique not only because we print on demand but also because we print right here, in the US. Because of the technology that we use, we are able to stay on-trend and respond to the demands of the market almost immediately. Our prints become available within a couple weeks from when they are designed by our exclusive designers rather than the old method of printing overseas, which means waiting 6 months – 1 year before prints become available. We also throw in all kinds of patterns and other freebies for our customers.
Did I mention that our fabric comes pre-washed? Yes, it is true. No shrinking on our 100% cotton poplin fabric. I think you will be delighted by what you find on our website: www.modernyardage.com
We think that what we are doing is really special and that we are going to change the way that people think about and buy fabric. It is our mission to provide opportunities for talented designers and to provide beautiful, high quality fabric to sewists and crafters so that they have the elements to inspire them to create wonderful projects. We hope that you will be inspired by what we offer.
Go vote for Modern Yardage!
That is a little bit about our company, but the most exciting thing going on in our company right now is that of over 2,000 original nominees in Martha Stewart American Made contest, we are one of the 6 finalists! Yes. Can you believe it? What an honor! We won the technology category and are so thrilled about it.
To be able to advance to the next round, we need your votes. We are up against some creative companies that have been around a lot longer than we have. So we would be grateful for your help.
You can vote 6x each day after you Register and Join. Please be sure to click the link to validate your email address in the email that is sent to you by Martha Stewart’s company. Also, remember to go back and vote each day through 9/30 so that our votes can really stack up! Click Here to Vote!
