RAMIEFABRICS

Ramie is one of the lesser known but increasingly popular natural fibres among sustainably minded sewers, prized for its strength, breathability and naturally crisp texture. At Fabulous Fabrics, our ramie range includes a selection of prints and plains suited to relaxed daywear, shirting, skirts and lightweight separates. Ramie shares some qualities with linen, including its cool, breathable handle, but typically has a smoother surface and a slightly more structured drape, making it a versatile alternative for makers looking for something a little different. As a plant based fibre, ramie is also a more sustainable choice compared to many synthetic alternatives, appealing to customers who care about the environmental impact of their fabric choices. Our printed ramie offers a range of contemporary patterns, while our plain ramie provides a solid base for considered, timeless pieces. All fabrics are sold with a minimum cut of 10cm, and orders over $175 ship free across Australia and New Zealand. Our experienced team in Balcatta can help guide you on the best ramie for your project.
