js code

(function () {
    var canvas = new fabric.Canvas('canvas');
    var canvas_el = document.getElementById('canvas');
    var canvas1 = new fabric.Canvas('canvas1');

    var group;
    fabric.Image.fromURL('img/blank.png', function (img) {
        var img1 = img.set({
            left: 0,
            top: 0
        });
        fabric.Image.fromURL('img/blank.png', function (img) {
            var img2 = img.set({
                left: 0,
                top: 0
            });
            group = new fabric.Group([img1, img2], {
                left: 0,
                top: 0
            });
            canvas.add(group)
        });
    });


    fabric.Image.fromURL('img/blank.png', function (img) {
        var img1 = img.set({
            left: 0,
            top: 0

If you are using JQuery try using the following javascript library called touchpunch and make sure you include it after you include JQuery.

I remember having a lot of issues with a drag and drop application while testing on mobile devices until I started using touchpunch.
