Screen-Printed Textiles from a Beachside Studio in Sydney

July 23, 2013

Founded by UK-born Julie Paterson in 1995, Cloth Fabric is a Sydney-based maker of screen-printed textiles. Paterson prototypes and develops all the designs in her beachside workshop in Sydney, basing her patterns on drawings and paintings inspired by the local landscape.

All fabrics are produced in short runs, by hand, in a tin shed in Country NSW; this small batch production method assures that the resulting cloth maintains its distinctive character. Visit Cloth Fabric for ordering information.
