GBSB Ep6 Inspiration: Fabrics for Little Makes
From tutus and cuddly creatures to superhero outfits, discover our favourite fabrics and sewing ideas inspired by Kids Week on The Great British Sewing Bee.
This characterful towelling jersey blends comfort with a bit of fun, featuring a hand-drawn animal print scattered across a muted blue base. The slightly looped surface gives it that soft, cosy towelling feel, while the gentle stretch makes it easy to wear and even easier to sew. It’s one of those fabrics that feels just as good as it looks - ideal when you want something practical but still a bit special.
With a good weight and reassuring quality, this cloth holds its shape nicely while still offering movement in both directions. Perfect for relaxed pieces like lounge sets, children’s clothing, robes or casual tops where comfort matters. It’s a premium take on everyday jersey, with a playful edge that sets it apart.
