Made from 100% cotton, this wax fabric is characterised by its traditional wax finish, which provides a subtle natural sheen, a softer feel and greater body to the fabric. It is a cool, lightweight fabric with good body, very pleasant to work with for both clothing and interior design projects.

Its eye-catching African-inspired print makes this fabric a perfect choice for making dresses, skirts, blouses, trousers, kaftans, light jackets, handbags, tote bags, rucksacks, turbans, toiletries bags, cushions, table runners and all kinds of fashion and home décor accessories.

Ideas for use: African dresses, shirts, blouses, skirts, trousers, bags, rucksacks, patchwork, cushions, tablecloths, home décor and DIY projects.

Sewing tip: use a universal needle 80/12 or 90/14 and good-quality polyester thread. To preserve the shine of the Lurex, glitter and rhinestone details, always iron inside out using a protective cloth and avoid direct heat on the metallic appliqués.

Care instructions: delicate fabric. We recommend hand washing in cold water, using a mild detergent; do not use bleach or a tumble dryer; air dry. Iron on a low heat setting inside out to preserve the wax finish and metallic details.
