Our cottons from India are block printed by hand, resulting in a gorgeously unique fabric ideal for tops, jacket linings, quilts, and similar projects.

This print is a bindaas block print, a type of traditional hand block printing technique that originated in Rajasthan, India. This unique technique involves printing designs on fabric using wooden blocks that have intricate patterns carved into them. The blocks are dipped in dye and then stamped onto the fabric to create a repeating pattern.

The word "bindaas" is a Hindi colloquial term that means "carefree" or "bold." This name reflects the free-spirited and bold nature of the block prints created using this technique.
