PLEASE NOTE: Fabric is sold in half metre units. For example, to order 1.5 metres, please enter a quantity of 3.

This soft, brushed cotton has the softest feel on the inside. The raised surface on the inside creates a cosy, almost enveloping softness - like a quiet layer of warmth against the skin. Smooth on the outside with a delicate pinspot design in black, it balances comfort with a clean, considered look.

Light to midweight with a soft structure, it's ideal for garments that are both practical and comforting to wear. Shown here made into the Pyjama Bottoms, it's particularly perfect for sleepwear.

Composition ~ 100% Cotton

What Clients Are Saying

Avid Seamstress Sewing Pattern Weekend - The Avid Seamstress

“Loved this kit, gorgeous fabric, interesting pattern and clear instructions”

Ruth

"The Blouse was a great project, with very detailed instructions, helpful photos, and useful sewing techniques. I have certainly learnt from this make, and the blouse turned out perfectly. I was so thrilled with the pattern that I made another, straight after completing the first! The option for 2 patterns in the pack was great, as my daughter has requested a blouse, and I really dislike tracing patterns! I added to the seam allowances so I could sew French Seams at the shoulders and sides, and reduced the seam allowance on the collar so that it was more of a feature, just my preference for the sew.
