FabMo Welcome to FabMo’s page. We are happy you are here to learn a bit about our organization. FabMo is an all volunteer organization.

FabMo promotes and encourages good stewardship of the earth by diverting discontinued designer fabrics, tiles, wallpapers and other similar materials from landfills, making them available to all interested persons and inspiring creative reuse. FabMo is a not-for profit organization located in Sunnyvale, CA. Our mission is to keep valuable materials such as fabric, wallpaper, yarn, leather, notions, tile and other crafting materials out of the landfill and to make it available to the local creative community. We collect show room samples that would otherwise be discarded at the San Francisco Design Center and accept donations of fabrics and crafting supplies from individuals and estates. All our materials are sorted and made available to the creative community during two monthly events as well as our online store. All proceeds from these event go towards keeping our doors open. More information, links to our events, the store, a blog with sustainability and crafting tips can be found here: www.FabMo.org. Come join us for one of our events or as a volunteer!

FabMo's 15th Artisans Market is happening on October 4th at the Los Altos Community Center from 11am until 4pm. One of our vendors will be Caroline Haskin
CREATIONS: Purses, Totes, Leather Purse Ornaments and Accessories
ARTISAN STATEMENT: I design and make one-of-a-kind, eco-friendly, purses and structured shoulder-bag totes; most featuring either a vintage needlepoint or English horse brass. I’ve also recently added a line of leather purse ornaments and accessories.
All of the fabrics I use, and most of the leathers (other than the repurposed leather belts I use for straps) come from FabMo. Because every purse I make is different, I need to keep a large stock of durable fabrics on hand, and in a broad range of colors and patterns. At FabMo, I’ve been able to find most of the materials I need, at a price that has helped me to do that, and to grow my small business, Bagnitude.

FabMo's 15th Artisans Market is happening on October 4th at the Los Altos Community Center from 11am until 4pm. One of our vendors will be Kathy Bonte
CREATIONS: Purses and Jewelry
ARTISAN STATEMENT: Kathy Bonte has been getting inspiration from FabMo’s cornucopia of treasures for over a dozen years and is particularly fond of its versatile and beautiful leathers, which she cuts, stamps, shapes, paints and embosses into lightweight necklaces, earrings and cuffs. More recently, she has become obsessed with FabMo’s smaller glass tiles as well. She views each tiny glass square as a miniature canvas-ready to receive a design and become part of a larger wearable creation.
Kathy complements her FabMo treasures with other scavenged materials whenever possible to further minimize her environmental footprint, utilizing upcycled aluminum and more recently, wood scraps from a friend’s cabinet-making business.

CREATIONS: Toys, Ornaments
ARTISAN STATEMENT: I like to use the textured fabrics I get from FabMo because it brings a sensory experience to each toy. Each toy is handcrafted by me and with its own unique personality that hopefully will bring smiles and a fun time to a kid or adult. I started sourcing my toy fabrics from FabMo over 5 years ago. Once a year or so I go get new textures that inspire new creations. I work in healthcare and making toys is a hobby I enjoy sharing.
