Description:

Ecru. This organic cotton has a fine twill with a brushed surface. FYI this twill is from a new supplier so if you have ordered this before this batch is different. We have more colours in this range, which you can see by clicking on 'alternatives'.

It would be ideal for trousers, dungarees and dresses that require some structure ie not a gathered waist, as well as lighter weight jackets and bag linings. It has a utility look and feel to it.

150cm wide.
8oz, 271gsm.
100% organic cotton.
Allow for 5% shrinkage.
Due to the nature of the organic cotton yarn which is less refined and processed, there may be the odd white speck in this cloth.
Iron on a medium heat.
Do not tumble dry.

This cloth is Oeko-Tex certified.
As all computer monitors show colours differently, we recommend ordering a sample of the cloth to check it is the right colour and weight for your project.

Washing Instructions

We recommend pre washing your fabric before sewing. Putting a large piece of medium-heavy weight cloth into the washing machine can sometimes lead to white creases in the fabric, this is because it is a stiff fabric so it doesn’t have room to move around. We recommend doing the following to help this not to happen:

Wash your fabric on its own for the first wash.
Sink your fabric in water before hand, letting it fully absorb, so you are putting in the cloth already wet.
If you can break up your fabric into half this will help.
For the first wash use a delicate 30 degree cycle with a low spin.
If any white creases develop ironing whilst still damp will help.
Do not tumble dry.

When you have made the garment we would recommend washing it inside out.

The Weekender Fabric Pairings

A new pattern collaboration with Francli Craftwear The Francli Weekender bag.⁠ ⁠ The perfect pack for weekend adventures. The Weekender comes in two sizes: the smaller would make an ideal overnight or commuter bag - a generous size for your essential daily carry while remaining neat enough to sit on your lap in a packed tube carriage. The larger size is your weekend bag. Big enough for all the clothes, books and craft projects you’ll need for a few days away from home (not quite the kitchen sink but certainly a pair of shoes that you packed in a panic and definitely won’t wear). Both options have a lining with a pocket inside and a pocket outside.⁠

We have put together some fabric, lining and webbing ideas for you to create your own bag.

Self - Storm Dry Cotton Oilskin. Lining - Tan Barrier Lining. Base - Expedition Rust Dry Oilskin. Webbing - Sand.
