GBSB Ep5 Inspiration: Working Out Athleisure
From activewear and French terry to technical fabrics and appliqué, we're taking inspiration from Sports Week on The Great British Sewing Bee
This 150cm wide bamboo towelling fabric in ecru is made from 90% bamboo and 10% polyester, giving it an exceptionally soft, almost velvety feel with the durability needed for regular use. At 325gsm, it’s a heavier weight with a dense, plush pile that feels gentle against the skin while offering excellent absorbency. The neutral ecru shade keeps it simple and versatile, letting the texture of the fabric do the talking.
Part of the Qjutie & The Qjutest range and featured in their first pattern magazine for the cuddle cloth goose, this fabric is designed with comfort in mind. It’s naturally moisture-wicking and quick-drying, making it a practical choice for everyday use. Ideal for baby items, cuddle cloths, bibs, towels, bathrobes and loungewear, it combines softness with performance. Oeko-Tex Class 1 certified, it’s suitable for sensitive skin and a reliable option for projects where comfort matters most.
