Choosing and buying Shwe-shwe from Jacksons in Govan Mbeki Ave, Port Elizabeth, Nelson Mandela Metro, South Africa. Evelyn Mhute is the smiling saleslady helping me here. In the forground is my rope basket made from Shwe-shwe and my hand dyed fabrics from my colour wheel class. Sue Bax taught the rope basket workshop. I am thrilled to be using more Shwe-shwe for this awesome international Splendid Sampler project with #PatSloan and #QuiltJane.

Jacksons

the new Shwe-shwe colours are SO delicious

W African Wax prints

These are much softer finer cottons to use for quilting - but shwe-shwe local and closer to my heart

and more of my favourite shop

i love the fact that they still sell overprints and offcuts by weight
