Nawapan Notions Shop
For people living in the Nichada and Pracha Niwet area, north of Bangkok… there is a notions shop on Prachaniwet 3 Road, off of Samakee Road near Benjama School. They have batting, muslin, and more for sewing.
From our roving reporter, Diana: Coming from ISB, to the motorway entrance on Namwongwan, drive down Samakee Road and turn right onto Pracha Niwet Road, on the right hand side just after the open ground which is used for a market/bus depot, opposite a large school there is a great haberdashery shop – industrial sewing machines out front – can’t miss it. They sell the white and off-white cotton thread we all use (20 Baht per spool), Venus big spool thread, huge range of zippers, lots of ribbons, black and white Velcro (20 Baht per meter), bias tape, snap closures (of all sizes), wooden needlework hoops (ranging from 30-60 Baht each), and all bits and bobs for sewing. Their polyester thread colour collection is amazing. They also have a few metallic’s. Next door (same shop though) is a pet supply shop.

Hi Jill, I pan on a day trip for fabric hunting in Bangkok. Would it be ok to go on a saturday? I will only be in Bangkok for a couple of days! Probably will hire a driver for the day so we could visit to most of the places in one go.

Hi, Jill,
I’m a longarm quilter in St George, UT. One of my customers asked if I would continue to quilt for her if she mailed her quilts. Needless to say, that would be crazy expensive for her.
I googled, thinking there might be quilters in Thailand – and here I am!
Do you know of anyone with a quilting business I could refer my friend/customer to? Anywhere in theFar East would be closer then me! 🙂
Thank you!
PS: Great site! Wish I had a trip to Thailand coming up. Maybe I could deduct it as a business expense. 😉

There aren’t any machine quilting businesses in Thailand. That’s why we learned to machine quilt our own quilts here, out of necessity. If you’re interested in getting some hand quilting done, you can contact me through these comments. It would involve mailing your quilt to Rayong, Thailand, to Khun Tiew and Our Home quilters. Thanks!

Hi Jill,
I am looking for some factories that can produce 2000-3000 quilts/day. We have already had designs and all the work that factories have to do is priting our designs into Quilts.
Can you recommend me some factories that have large capacity and can offer us a competitive price?

Hi Jill, thanks for the updated information. I went looking on our last visit to Bangkok, and was amazed at what is available at what prices, and just didn’t have room in my suitcase for any more. I found some wonderful bargains. I will be back later this year in September, and will be checking out some of these wonderful places. Quilting fabrics in Australia are so expensive, and these are a great find.
Thanks again Wendy
