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.
Crisp, smooth and wonderfully versatile, this wide-width cotton poplin is a sewing room essential. Woven from 100% cotton, it has a soft yet stable handle with a clean finish that presses beautifully, making it ideal for projects where accuracy and a neat finish matter. The rich dark turquoise blue brings a bold splash of colour while remaining easy to pair with coordinating prints and plains.
At 150cm wide, this extra-wide poplin provides excellent coverage for larger projects and garments, reducing seams and making pattern placement more economical. Breathable, durable and easy to sew, it is equally suited to dressmaking, quilting, craft projects and home furnishings. Perfect for shirts, dresses, skirts, children's clothing, pyjamas, patchwork, bunting, cushion covers, quilting and lightweight home décor.
