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.
Softly coloured leaves, delicate berries and watercolour brushstrokes come together in this beautifully understated linen viscose fabric. Printed on a natural-toned background, the design has a relaxed, countryside feel with shades of taupe, stone, soft brown and muted olive creating a palette that's easy to wear throughout the year. The linen content gives the fabric its characteristic texture, while the viscose adds softness and fluidity.
At 180gsm, this is a versatile dressmaking fabric with enough substance for trousers and skirts whilst retaining the drape needed for dresses, blouses and loose-fitting shirts. The natural fibres make it breathable and comfortable to wear, particularly during warmer months. Whether you're planning a flowing midi dress, a relaxed co-ord, wide-leg trousers or an oversized shirt, this fabric brings an effortless elegance that doesn't need bright colours or bold prints to make an impact.
