Is there someone who has information about supplier which can produce such fabrics ?

I'm assuming you are looking to Laos or Vietnam because of their cheap labor resources. I can't help you on that, but there are many cooperatives and weaving villages in Thailand.

Patricia Cheeseman who has researched Lao-Tai textiles for many years, has designed and produced cotton ikat of the highest quality in both contemporary and traditional designs.

I'm not sure what computer search engines are available to you, but she can be reached through her email-just search her name.

Both Laos and Vietnam (and Cambodia as well), hope to develop their textile industries. Go to their country page, and then search for info on textile manufacturing.

I'm sure that others on the forum could be more specific.

Good luck,
