I Am Irma is absolutely my dream make for 2025. It'll be with the dramatic Bishop sleeves and in a wax print. Toying between going for a bold big print with a huge motif or one with a small motif that eliminates issues with misaligned motifs. I'm going to take my time to make something I really like. The pattern is available on our website. What's your dream make this year?

I've called this print 'Coffee beans'. A somewhat muted colour palette and pattern compared to our usual wax prints. Beautiful all the same and it would work for quite a number of projects. A jacket or maybe even a skirt. The main colour is brown, though I don't quite know what I would call the contrasting colour. #ankarafabric #ankarauk #waxprint #fabric

Preparing an Aso-oke order. Aso-oke is a loom woven fabric so a tip for cutting is to use pinking shears as it reduces fraying of the cloth.
A classic African print fabric celebrating Highlife music which is a music genre that originated in Ghana and spread to other African countries and popular in Nigeria. Printed on 100% cotton, this fabric is suitable for a vast range of sewing and dressmaking projects. If you are curious, check out Spotify or YouTube. Definitely reignites some childhood memories of garden parties, malt drinks, jollof, adult chatter and kids about, both seen and heard! #waxprintfabric #fabric #ankara
