Founded by Arthur Linwood Ellis in 1920, Ellis Curtain is a fifth-generation, family-owned home-textile manufacturer making window treatments and other home goods. Its Fall River, Massachusetts, facility occupies a 1893 mill that once wove cotton yarn, and skilled seamstresses still craft products there as the company carries on the city’s American-made textile tradition. Ellis Curtain also works with mills around the world while maintaining its quality assurance across the line.
American Blossom LinensFamily-owned Thomaston Mills has been making bedding in Thomaston, Georgia, since 1899, with the Zaslow family carrying that textile tradition forward after acquiring the mill in 2001. American Blossom Linens grew from that legacy, keeping its production in the United States and drawing on the experience of craftsmen who have worked there for generations. The company is best known for its American-made percale sheets, produced from U.S.-grown cotton with a deliberately straightforward, durable construction.THOMASTON, GA
