The Beautiful and Classic Types of Asian Quilting Fabric Bali quilting fabric is known for two main reasons: quality and exquisite design. Quilting has become a tradition with many of us who had the good fortune to try and venture into this fascinating world. The reason it is fascinating is because quilting gives us the possibility to create and be unique each time.
Different Types of Bali Quilting Fabric
There are two popular types of Bali quilting fabric and they are batik and polo. Batik is a fabric whose design is created through a unique process, which consists of applying wax to form different patterns. It is always recommended that you wash a batik Bali quilting fabric at least couple of times with hot water before you start stitching in order for the wax to completely wash away.
The other Bali quilting fabric is called 'polo' which also means in Balinese 'without a background.' These are created through hand dying and no wax therefore, no design or pattern on it. All Bali quilting fabrics usually come pre-shrunk but you can always wash and dry it before you start the quilting process so you don't take any chances.
The batik material that you get in the market today is produced in Bali. The history of the batik shows that centuries ago this type of dying was extremely popular
Style, Elegance, and Personality
Bali quilting fabrics don't just offer unique hand designs, quality, and durability. Through its sophisticated patterns you will get elegance and style in a very simple and colorful way.
Bali fabrics are easily marked for their colorful, vivid and unique patterns; they come in a great variety of colors to match the most demanding requirements and decors. Bali fabrics are popular not only because they are made all individually by hand but also because of their unmatched quality.
