Default African Shweshe fabric
Found this fabric from a vendor at quilt show. She previously owned a shop in South Africa and brought her stash with her, my lucky day. I have made zippered makeup bags that are done in the hoop on my embroidery machine. Fully lined with no exposed seams. They have ended up being great gifts.
