NEW YORK DESIGNER FABRIC OUTLET

Welcome

Welcome to NYDFO, your source for overstock and remnants from luxury fabric houses that have never sold retail. Until now.

These are the same hand-printed fabrics and wallpapers that designers specify for their best clients—now available to you, no trade account required. Quadrille, China Seas, and other houses that have been hand-printing fabrics for longer than most brands have existed. Quantities are limited. When they're gone, they're gone.

Contact us with questions, or call David or Marie at the warehouse directly: 518-758-1555. Just say it's NYDFO. They'll take it from there.

China Seas Fabric: Bahama Cloth - Custom Windsor Blue on Belgian Linen/Cotton
eco-friendly

Our ground


Our Belgian linen / cotton is woven by a fifth-generation family mill in the historic flax region near Kortrijk—where streets are still named Vlasstraat, Roterijstraat, and Linnenstraat (Flax Street, Retting Street, Linen Street). The fabric is inspected yard by yard and mended by hand where necessary.
The mill has been CO2 neutral since 2014. The best flax in the world is still grown in their region, transformed by craftsmen whose families have been doing this work for over 150 years.

HAND PRINTING IN THE USA

25 yards at a time

The screen moves down the table in measured steps, anchored by metal stops that keep each repeat aligned with the last. Pull, lift, move, repeat. What looks like a single pattern is actually dozens of precise impressions, joined so seamlessly your eye will never find the seams. This is how it's done—by hand, in the USA, one length at a time.

HAND PRINTING IN THE USA

The long table

Twenty-five yards of possibility. The table waits for the ground cloth, then the linen, then the screens. Each pattern will travel this length one pull at a time—stop, print, lift, move, repeat. What emerges at the end has touched every inch of this surface. There are no shortcuts when the table is this long.

HAND PRINTING IN THE USA

Where color begins

This is not a tidy process. Custom Turquoise, Jungle Green, the particular orange of a bird-of-paradise flower—they all start here, in buckets and drums, mixed by hand until the eye says yes. Water-based pigment inks, formulated to match what the designer imagined. The mess is the proof that humans were here.
