Important Notes:
The fabric types offered above are the current list as of January 27, 2012, they add new and discontinue old occasionally so check out this link if you want to see what they have now, I will try to keep this list updated. Also, you can use that link to order a sample booklet of their fabrics... for only 1$ and no shipping they will send you a swatch book so you can see the quality of the fabrics your self, I highly recommend it if you are getting ready to order for some projects. (the button to order a sample book is down at the bottom of the list of fabric types)
Spoonflower sets the prices, I have no say in the costs, so I do not publish the prices on my webspaces because it is subject to change, for current pricing, pretty much any link on this page will take you to a page with current pricing per yard.
I have samples printed at least one of each fabric type and I can attest to the quality and print results, but please note the pictures above are color matched exactly, and they do differ slightly from the previews on spoonflower based on what they are printed on. (For instance "November Maple" printed very bright on the quilting weight, and "Snow Gentleman" has a slight shift because of the colorspace spoonflower uses in their print profile) when in doubt, for a color match refer to the pics above, or order a swatch of the the fabric.
