Has anyone bought fabric in the Caribbean?

I read that St. Kitts has a batique factory and they sell fabric. I also read that on Sun. the shopping there isn't the greatest. We will be there on a Sunday and I really wanted to buy some fabric. Does anyone know anything about it? My first trip to the Caribbean and my 2nd Cruise(first one was to Alaska- absolutely loved it)

Having been to Caribelle Batik, I have NO IDEA why shopping on Sunday would not be OK. When we were there there was a large selection.

Thanks for the answer Jeanne. i'm looking forward to checking out the batik . I saved some money just for fabric. I'll also save room for packing it home. Pat

Pat,
I have not purchased batik; however, on a recent cruise stop in Belize I went into a fabric store and was surprised to see a very large selection of nice quality, beautiful fabrics. I purchased a pretty rayon tropical border print (with Belize printed on it). It was the exact fabric that I had seen made up at some of the resort-wear boutique-type shops at the tourist center. The fabrics were very reasonably priced. I can't pass a fabric store without going in. I have a fabric stash to prove it. Have fun.

Thanks RocketCity. I have just started quilting and as a side effect have restarted sewing clothes again. I'm having to start my stash again, so maybe I will find some really beautiful fabrics.
