Australian Made Fabrics
Our Australian fabrics are designed and printed right in Australia! Our fabrics are made to order with a quick turn around, and we are delighted to be uploading new designs daily.
We support Australian fabric designers and Australian small business wherever possible. We are proud to bring you a truly unique range of Australian fabrics that are printed in Australia.
We often get asked about our fabrics:
1. Is your company Australian owned and operated?
Yes we most definitely are - we are an Australian family owned and run fabric business, operating out of regional New South Wales.
2. Are your fabrics "Australian Made"?
Unfortunately Australia does not produce it's own woven cotton fabric bases for us to print on. We are aware of cotton stretch/lycra that is certified as an Australian made product, but not any woven cottons. We are doing our best to be Australian made by transitioning over to 100% Australian designed, Australian printed, and (when possible!) Australian milled cotton where possible. We use Australian business partners for everything from packing, stickers, labels, I.T, and even graphic designers.
3. Do you support Australian textile artists?
Yes. Most of our fabrics are designed in house or by Australian artists. We are also starting to empower other Aussie artists such as Rebecca from Rathenart, Carolyn Quan, Fabriculture and Elise Martinson Fabrics. You can see our wonderful showcase of Australian fabric designers right here.
We are currently seeking submissions from Australian Artists and designers. Please email us at contact@australianafabrics.com.au for submission guidelines.
We hope you love sewing with the fabrics we choose and offer at our store. And thank you for supporting our family company.
