GBSB Ep6 Inspiration: Fabrics for Little Makes
Tutus, cuddly creatures and superheroes inspired our favourite fabrics and sewing ideas from Kids Week on The Great British Sewing Bee.
There's something wonderfully nostalgic about this jersey towelling. The bold diagonal stripes in vibrant red, emerald green, sunshine yellow and fine black lines set against a crisp ivory background wouldn't look out of place on a vintage beach deckchair or lining the promenade of an old Riviera resort. Cheerful, colourful and full of personality, it's exactly the sort of fabric that makes you want to book a holiday or at least sew for one.
Made from 100% cotton, this ex designer fabric has a soft absorbent towelling face with a smooth jersey back, giving you the comfort of traditional towelling with a lighter, more wearable drape. The knitted construction adds a little natural stretch, making it comfortable to wear and straightforward to sew. Ideal for beach cover ups, matching co-ords, oversized shirts, robes, children's holiday outfits, relaxed shorts or luxury beach towels. Whether you're sewing for the coast, the pool or simply bringing some sunshine into your wardrobe, this fabric is guaranteed to brighten the project.
