TanyaL, the reason you're not finding any fabric companies who manufacture in the US is because there are none. At least, none that make cotton fabric. That all is woven in Asia, and it is all printed overseas, too, in Pakistan, China, South Korea, Japan, and Indonesia (for batiks).

The only place that I know of that prints cotton fabric in the US is Santee. They are the company that prints a lot of the basic prints that are on the calico wall at JoAnn Fabrics.

If you are looking for poly/cotton fabrics that are made in the US, then send me a PM because I do have a link to a US manufacturer that I could send you.
