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.
A cerise pink linen viscose blend with a softly textured surface and a relaxed, fluid handle. The linen adds breathability and a subtle slub, while the viscose softens the feel and improves drape, making it more comfortable to wear than pure linen. The plain dyed finish gives an even, confident colour suited to clean, simple shapes.
At 188gsm this midweight woven fabric has enough body to hold its shape without feeling stiff. With no stretch in either direction, it’s easy to cut, sew, and press, making it a reliable choice for dresses, skirts, tops, relaxed trousers, and jumpsuits where comfort and airflow matter.
