This is a handwoven fabric with a stripe pattern.
This fabric is smooth but will become softer over time after using and washing it.
This fabric doesn't get the attention it deserves, maybe because from the photos it looks like fairly ordinary fabric. When seen in person though it is clear that this is not ordinary at all and it has the quality texture of a handmade fabric.
This fabric is hand made from locally grown cotton in Thailand. It is made by Thai craftspeople who make fabrics in their homes. We work directly with these weavers and pay them a fair price, which helps them to continue their craft and produce sustainable products without the use of any machines. Buying this product will help support communities in Thailand.
Tip: real handwoven fabric can be recognized by looking at the edges. Handwoven fabrics have edges that are irregular and wavy as you can see in the picture.
This fabric is great for making cushions, clothes or bags. It is not difficult to work with but it is good to have a overlock (serger) machine as it can fray easily as it always the case with handwoven fabrics. Once locked and stitched it is strong.
The price of this product is per meter (1.1 yards). If you order more it will come as one continuous length.
The width of this fabric is 100 cm (1.1 yards).
This is a fairly heavy weight fabric at 310 gr/m2
