GBSB 2026 Final: Celebrating a Brilliant Series
The Sewing Bee has come to an end! We’re celebrating finalists Anna, Beth and Emma, congratulating this year’s winner and looking back on a wonderful series.
Bursting with colour and looking as though someone has gone wild with an artist’s sketchbook, Art School is a digitally printed cotton French terry jersey with plenty going on. Layers of painted swatches, scribbles, brushstrokes and crayon-like marks tumble across the cloth in green, pink, yellow, orange, turquoise, purple, navy and more. Made from cotton with elastane, it has a smooth printed face and the familiar soft looped reverse of French terry.
Perfect for letting the fabric do all the talking, this colourful jersey makes fabulous sweatshirts, hoodies, joggers, relaxed dresses, tops and loungewear. The abstract artwork means every section has something different to catch your eye, while the cotton-rich construction keeps it comfortable and easy to wear. Definitely not one for shrinking violets.
