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.
Pretty without being overly sugary, this John Louden cotton poplin has a soft pink ground scattered with tiny florals and leafy sprigs in coral red, rose pink, fresh green and muted blue. The small-scale print has plenty going on when you look closely, but from a distance it reads as a wonderfully easy, colourful floral. Made from 100% cotton, the poplin has a smooth, neat finish and the crispness you want from a good dressmaking cotton.
At 130gsm, it is light enough for comfortable summer clothing while still having enough body to sew beautifully and hold its shape. Try it for shirts, blouses, shirt dresses, gathered skirts, sundresses, children's clothing and pyjamas, as well as quilting and prettier craft projects. The pink colourway gives the original Winslet design a warmer, cheerier feel and would make a particularly lovely summer shirt or dress.
