I am very happy. The fabric is high quality and soft, and I am very happy with the colours and printing of my designs.
Miss Moth
Great service, fabric & price. Ordered a sample size PYO jersey fabric to test the fabric, my skills at producing a seamless PDF and create some “Made by me” labels. I highly recommend Maake.
Betty Garfoot
The 10 year old in me wants all things printed on this fabric!
Amy Lee
I love making specialty headbands for sweaty jobs and with happy, fun patterns. This fabric has the perfect thickness, stretch, absorbing and cooling qualities for this job!
Amy Lee
Excellent, very nice print and material. Thank you.
Lina
I have used this company a few times. They printed photos onto wonderful stretch jersey fabric so I could make T-shirts. Brilliant fabric and I will use them again.

With our Make A Metre option, you can upload multiple designs onto a single piece of fabric, either a fat quarter, a linear metre, or a sample. You can split the canvas into rows and columns, place different images in each section, and scale them to your preference. It’s the easiest way to test patterns, explore colourways, and see how your artwork translates across different sizes and fabrics, all while being eco-friendly
and flexible.
