I have always wondered about how fabric becomes fabric. And what all that information printed on the selvage means. 
Weeks Ringle, of FunQuilts, is a regular contributor to the "WhipUp" blog and she posted a wonderful article titled "Becoming Fabric".
Here is a “snip it” of what Weeks wrote about that process:
"Before we had our own fabric line I used to flip casually through bolts of fabric at the quilt shop unaware of who designed it, how many inks were on the selvedge or how elegantly the repeat looked spread over a couple of yards. But yesterday when the sample cuts of our fifth line of fabrics arrived from FreeSpirit I realized that I look at fabric differently now, so I thought I’d share the perspective of the fabric designer."

And I look forward to seeing the FunQuilts new line (in a whole different light) from FreeSpirit at International Quilt Market in a few weeks.
