Minky fabric, classified as a “cuddle fabric,” has taken the fabric industry by storm. And there is a reason for it!
A plush, microfiber fabric that is incredibly soft and smooth to the touch, it is versatile and well-loved. Durability is a huge plus as its colors do not fade like many cotton fabrics.
In fact, our owner Sandi Hendry discovered the wonderful world of minky fabric when she started giving fun, unique and functional gifts to friends and family members. The most exciting go-to gift that was always a hit and used on a daily basis were blankets. She began designing different combinations so each gift was unique and fit the individual style and taste of the recipient.
Minky fabric truly does lend itself so well to customization. This cozy fabric comes in a variety of pile lengths, textures and patterns including faux cashmere and mink fur. Fabric designs include solid colors, animal prints, stripes, dots and novelty designs. Traditionally it has been used to make children’s toys, but with its popularity, more and more products are available including robes, clothing, baby (and adult, if you shop at Minky Couture!) blankets, quilts, toys and even cloth diapers!
But, there is a big difference in the quality of minky fabric available on the market today. Because we hand-pick only the highest quality minky available, our blankets always feel more luxurious than any other minky blanket you will experience.
