Batik and exotic fabrics from around the world

We have a huge quantity of fabrics in stock, including many individual pieces, so the range shown here and available online is only a small sample. All the designs shown here are available as patchworking sets, and many can be ordered by the metre. Please enquire if you want large quantities of any fabric or wish to find a match for an existing fabric.

Please note that all the fabrics are handmade and each batch is unique. Consequently, colours and designs will vary slightly from the illustrations shown here.

Fabrics sold by the metre are 42 inches wide, the patchwork samples are approximately 10 inches square, and all the fabrics are washable. Many fabrics are supplied in 'sarong lengths' of approximately 2 metres.
