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.
Deep, elegant and full of character, this Italian silk satin comes in a striking purple shade that brings depth and sophistication to any project. The glossy surface catches the light beautifully, while the fluid drape creates graceful movement whether you're sewing a simple blouse or an eye-catching evening dress.
At 70gsm, this lightweight woven silk feels smooth against the skin and remains comfortable to wear. Perfect for dresses, skirts, tops, luxury nightwear and special occasion pieces, it offers the timeless appeal and natural beauty that only silk can provide.
