For almost 30 years we have travelled the world, visiting sewing shops, talking and dreaming about creating somewhere local that we could fill with the worlds most beautiful and ethical apparel fabrics.
Weft and Warp is the fulfilment of that dream. We have built a collection of the most wonderful fabrics, patterns, notions and sewing space to share with everyone. Whether it is in our shop in Canberra or online, we would like to welcome you to be part of the dream, and start your own sewing adventure.
