Default Cotton fabric made 100% in America

I recently heard about a company that was milling and making 100% made in America cotton fabric. But I can't for the life of me remember the name of the company. Can any of you help me out? I have had several quilt shops ask for the information. Figured if anyone would know this group here would.

Just saw this fabric at my quilt shop - it is made in Texas but I can't remember the name of the company. The fabric had a nice hand to it.

It's grown, spun, woven, and dyed right here in the US. Can't beat that! They have 50 colors so far and it's 78x74 threads (described as shirting, not 60x60 broadcloth like most other solids). They say it has a soft yet firm hand. Where to get it can be found on their website, along with other info.

I'm going to ask one of my local shops if she'll consider stocking it. She doesn't carry any solids right now, but she does carry Clothworks. Besides, her shop is in a remodeled mill...it's a natural!

"Creating New Traditions" is made in the USA and a portion of the profit goes to the National Military Family Foundation. When you search fabric at the Joann website you can select creating new traditions and get just those to show up.

Had to edit because i got the fabric names mixed up.

I have bought some of the Texas made in America cotton. Very nice fabric. Has a great feel to it and washed up really nice without a lot of shrinkage.
