Description:

A peachy blush pink. 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.

Elwen is wearing the Shepherd skirt and the Heroine Jeans.

  • 150cm wide.
  • 8oz, 271gsm.
  • 100% organic cotton.
  • 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.
  • Machine wash at 30, do not bleach.
  • 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.
  • Thread match Gutermann Sew All 991.

This fabric is suitable for the following patterns in the Workbook: Haremere and Strides.

Washing Instructions

We recommend pre washing your fabric before sewing. Putting a large piece of medium-heavy weight canvas 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 canvas 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 on a medium heat whilst still damp will help.
  • Can be tumble dried on a low heat.

Sona Erba - Me Made May
Sona Erba - Me Made May

Sona Erba runs 'Stitching Poetry', a made-to-order clothing brand. Sona makes all the items by hand in a slow and considered way and is a constant inspiration to us here at Merchant & Mills. We are always in awe of how she transforms our cloth, which patterns and fabric combinations she chooses and how she styles her makes. For 'Me Made May' this year, Sona shared a whole month of inspiring makes, many of them using our fabrics and patterns. Click on the images to find out more about the cloth she has used or the pattern she has hacked.
