Fabric washes well. Dyes fantastic too both by hand and machine. Samples came out great and so far appears to have no spirality.
End-of-roll fabric
To date, we have prevented 4 500 meters of leftover fabric from entering landfill.
Why end-of-roll fabric?
End-of-roll or “last of its kind” fabric is left-over fabric from a big or custom order that a manufacturer/designer did not use. Instead of this excess going to waste, we source this fabric from various manufacturers and provide it straight to you.
This fabric is perfect for individuals and designers who are looking to source fabric at a reasonable price. We know that for many designers, it is a struggle to source fabric locally, given that current minimum order quantities in the industry are so high. In our bid to make life easier for you, our minimum quantity order starts at 1 meter for our end-of-roll offering.
Please note that we are cashless, we only accept EFT payments.
