More Quilts, Bedcovers, Tablecloths

Made by women in a small village near Ubud. Each piece is hand-made to order. Any design is possible, from traditional Amish and Hawaiian motifs to whatever the imagination allows!

Some pieces are made by the batik method. Batik is a resist dye method of decorating fabric. A pattern is drawn using a thin line of hot wax. Then color is applied either with a brush or by dipping so that the fabric is dyed wherever there is no wax. Then the wax is removed and the piece is finished such as shown below in our Baby Quilt:





Some of our quilts are made by the traditional patchwork method. Handwoven Balinese cotton, ikat, factory made cotton, blends and silk is used. As with the batik items each patchwork quilt is made to order.
