Black/Ochre Papercut
Quilted Indian Cotton

A striking Bagru block print in black one side and ochre the other. Bagru, a small village in Rajasthan, 35 kilometres from Jaipur, is known for its hand block printing utilising traditional processes and natural colours. Bagru prints tend to be more simple with limited colours in comparison to Sanganer block prints which are more colourful with finer detail. Block printing is still practiced by the Chippa community, who have lived here for over 400 years.

These block prints are quilted with straight lines every 1cm. Please note the close up picture, these horizontal lines appear every metre so you will get these as part of your cut piece. Even if you order a 1M piece. 

Please note that the cloth is 106cm wide but only 95cm of the width has been quilted.

This is a new dye batch and therefore we recommend ordering a sample to check the colour and suitability for your project. 

Papercut Quilted is suitable for quilted jackets, gilets, cushions or coats. 

• 95cm wide (usable quilted width).

• For the couple of washes, place the fabric in the washing machine drum at 30 or 40 degrees with a handful of table salt. This will fix the dye to prevent it from running.
