Fat Quarter 2-Packs

Packs of two fat quarters for your stitching pleasure.

There may be Indian block prints, from Gujarat and Rajasthan, and khadi (handspun and handwoven) stripes and solids from Karnataka as well as screenprint designs in a block print style and some woven ikat fabrics.

The ikats are created by first painstakingly tying and dyeing warp threads, setting up the loom to space out the motifs across the fabrics and then weaving a solid weft colour across the fabric (single ikat cloths) When this effect is also created with weft threads it is called double ikat.

All fabrics are cotton and vary from medium to lightweight. Fabric widths also vary - different weavers weave different sizes. All fabrics should be at least 50cm in one dimension but will vary in the other.
