A designer told us that most of our fabrics come from Korea and Japan. She added that she has very mixed feelings about the fact that they are able to produce such beautiful, multi-colored fabrics because their environmental laws are not as strict as ours here in the States.

I saw some lovely fabrics from Japan at the local quilt store but alas, I think they were running about $35 or more a yard. And now with the nuclear fallout, I wonder how many people will really be interested in purchasing fabrics that are Japanese made???

If the factories that produce the fabrics were impacted by the recent events, it will likely be awhile before more are seen. But, I don't think Japanese manufacturers will increase prices drastically because they really can't afford to lose sales or customers.
