Quilter's Paradise

These fabrics are sun prints and are hand-dyed using local vegetation to give the illusion of the rainforest. The fabrics are dyed out of doors and the incorporation of the sun, wind, and rain influences the dying technique. Specifically made in South Africa by Langa Lapu Fabrics. 

How are they made?

The technique consists of putting the dye/paint on the fabric and then spreading the ferns or leaves on top. The dye is sun reactive and where ever the sun hits the dye is absorbed into the fabric. Where the sun does not touch as much - for instance under the leaves, the dye is not as well accepted. This makes for a very interesting and pleasing effect.

These fabrics are great for in quilts, clothing, purses, and absolutely perfect for curtains, dust ruffles, and bed spreads or those other do it yourself projects. Not all bolts can be exactly matched from order to order. Please buy a large enough piece for your project.

Below are swatches (Photo's of swatches 12 x 14 inches). Colors have been matched as close as possible.  Prices are as follows;

Fabrics are 45-58 inches wide and pricing is in U.S Dollars. So all pieces are larger than you narmally buy at quilt shops.

This is the least expensive price anywhere in the U.S. Get them while they last. No more will be available after they are gone. I am depleting my inventory and going out of business.
