I have used batik for almost all of mine!

Pros:
Tightly woven so very strong
beautiful colors and designs
Doesn't have a wrong side to the fabric

Cons:
Doesn't breathe quite as well as some other fabrics, so might have a slight tendency to get a bit hot in the summer months (for baby) if they are cocooned in it
More expensive

I don't know where you would get it in the UK, but you should be able to google "batik fabric" and find someplace.
