The owner, Brigitte Wimbush, has a fine art and graphic design background and has been in the advertising industry for over twenty years. Based near the extraordinary Valley of 1000 Hills in KwaZulu-Natal, the talents of the creative team at Fabscraps knows no bounds. Astonishingly, within 10 years, Fabscraps has grown from what started off as a small venture in a loft, into the largest craft and fabric manufacturer in Africa. Fabscraps factory employees are predominantly from the KwaZulu-Natal region, many of who are single parents.

Since 2005, Fabscraps has strived to transform the lives of many of these men and women by providing and mentoring career resilient work programs and assisting them in growing within the company.

Today, the Fabscraps collections are as vast and as varied as the people of their rainbow nation. As a result, the brand has become one of the most recognized in South Africa and across the globe.

With love from Africa – and Fabscraps, of course.
