LEAVE A COMMENT IN JANUARY 2024 FOR AN ENTRY TO WIN A ROLL OF STASHBUILDERS

How wonderful to be selected for a second year as an Island Batik Ambassador! We have a wonderful Ambassador team that I am proud to be a part of. We will make magic with the incredible Island Batik fabrics available this year. It is exciting to start the year opening our box of goodies from Island Batik and partners: Oliso, Hobbs Batting, Schmetz needles, Studio 180 Designs, Aurifil thread, and Funky Friends Factory.

“The philosophy of Island Batik has always been to participate in the success, enrichment and development of the community in which we manufacture our batik.”

Our box contained the following and is pictured above. My Pink Tulip Arts YouTube Channel has the unboxing video
