Why "Emma One Sock"?
Emma One Sock was founded in 1994 as a boutique line of children's clothing designed and manufactured by yours truly, Linda Podietz. When I decided to 'retire' this business in the beginning of 2001, I began to sell off some of the very beautiful fabrics that I had accumulated over the years. It became apparent that there was a market for the types of fabrics to which I had access, and suddenly I found myself in the fabric-selling business! Since the company was originally named for my two children (Emma and Aaron--AKA"One Sock"), EmmaOneSock.com has remained as the name for my new incarnation as a fabric seller.

About The Fabric Store....
Over the years, I have developed contacts with wonderful suppliers, and as the market changes, I am always seeking out new ones. Many of the fabrics are purchased "post production", meaning that I pick through fabrics that are remaining after designers and mills complete their samples for a season, or complete a production run. I rarely purchase more than 20-25 yards of any one fabric, and I sometimes purchase pieces as small as 5-10 yards. Some fabrics are one-time only finds, others may be reorderable. I try to be extremely selective and pick out only "the good stuff"! Typically you won't find these fabrics in your local fabric store, but you may spot them in RTW (Ready-to-Wear).
Many customers watch the website closely, as the selections at EmmaOneSock.com tend to reflect the latest trends and new listings appear often. Fabrics can sometimes be reordered, even if marked "sold out", so it never hurts to ask!
Because of the quick turnover, I don't offer a catalogue, as it would be obsolete within a week or two. But I do offer a FREE swatch service: just browse the website for swatches you'd like to see, click the 'request swatch' link at the upper right of your screen on each detail page, and I'll send them out, no matter where you live!
One last word: while my talent may lie in spotting great fabrics, patterns and textures, and putting them together, I do not claim great expertise in the art of sewing. That's why I'm very lucky to have access to the talents of Shannon Gifford, who writes all of the sewing guides and articles for the website. Please take advantage of her writings: they are full of great information, and will make you feel much more comfortable when trying out some of the new fabrics on the market.
Enjoy yourself---your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. ~Linda Emma One Sock
