“We take pride in providing creative inspiration with our colourful selection of needlework supplies and sewing workshops.” Karin Franken
Karin Franken established Kaliko Boutique Fabric Shop in September 2020.
As a child, both Karen’s mom and grandmother were keen seamstresses and lay the foundations for her love of sewing and crafts.
After years of practising as a pharmacist in her chemist, Gansbaai Apteek (now Arie Nel Pharmacy), Karin realised her dream of developing her creative side and opened Kaliko Boutique Fabric Shop. The career change was also inspired by her daughter Liezl, a stylist studying to be a fashion designer.
Kaliko Boutique Fabric Shop carries an extensive range of top-quality dressmaking fabrics and upholstery textiles personally sourced by Karin.
