Question 1

What is the minimum quantity to buy block print fabric?

Accepted Answer

There is no minimum order quantity. All our block print fabrics are sold in 10-metre rolls — one roll is the smallest unit available. You can order a single roll of any design without needing to commit to a larger quantity. For wholesale and bulk orders of 5 rolls or more in the same design, WhatsApp us at +91 80055 43240 for wholesale pricing and lead time details.

Question 2

What is the difference between Ajrakh and Dabu block print fabric?

Accepted Answer

Ajrakh is a multi-step resist-print and dye process originating from Kutch and Barmer — it produces bold geometric patterns in deep madder red and indigo blue through up to 16 alternating printing and dyeing stages. The print is identical on both sides of the fabric. Dabu is a mud-resist process specific to Bagru — a paste of clay, lime, and wheat bran is block-printed onto the cotton before dye application, then washed away after dyeing, leaving soft-edged organic florals in earthy ochres, sage greens, terracottas, and indigos. Ajrakh is geometric and sharply defined; Dabu is organic and softly blurred at the edges.

Question 3

How many metres of fabric do I need for a saree, a kurta, or a suit set?

Accepted Answer

A standard saree requires 5.5 to 6.5 metres depending on draping style, plus 0.8 to 1 metre for the blouse piece — so one 10-metre roll is enough for one saree with blouse and some left over. A full long kurta requires approximately 2.5 metres for most sizes. A suit set with kameez, salwar or pant, and dupatta requires approximately 5 to 6 metres. One 10-metre roll typically yields one suit set and one additional kurta, or two suit sets in smaller sizes. WhatsApp us at +91 80055 43240 with your measurements and garment type for custom yardage guidance.

Question 4

Is this fabric pre-shrunk?

Accepted Answer

Our block print fabric is not pre-shrunk. Pure cotton shrinks slightly in the first wash — typically 3 to 5% in length and 1 to 2% in width. We recommend a cold pre-wash of the fabric before cutting and stitching. This sets the fabric to its final dimensions and removes excess dye in the same step. Factor this into your yardage calculation when buying fabric for a specific garment with precise measurements.

Question 5

Can I order fabric swatches before buying a full roll?

Accepted Answer

For wholesale and bulk orders of 5 or more rolls, we can arrange sample swatches before you commit to the full quantity. For single-roll retail orders, swatches are not available separately as the 10-metre roll is the minimum unit. If you have specific questions about a design before purchasing, WhatsApp us at +91 80055 43240 and we will send additional photographs or video of the fabric in hand.
