From our selection of Quirky Prints, we have this funky retro roller skate print in a number of colourways. As with all of our wax prints, these are 100% cotton and a medium weight. This makes them great for dressmaking as well as other sewing and crafting uses.

This range is made in Ghana and available to purchase by the yard or as 6 yard lengths. Just click on an image to see more images and details.
