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 jacquard towelling fabric in khaki green is made from 80% cotton and 20% polyester, giving it a soft, absorbent handle with added durability. The geometric pattern is woven into the fabric rather than printed, creating a subtle texture that adds depth without being overly busy. At 240gsm, it’s a comfortable midweight with enough body for garments while still feeling breathable and easy to wear.
Part of the Qjutie & The Qjutest range and featured in their first pattern magazine for the Q2512 blouse and J1002-G shorts, this is a practical fabric with a bit more interest than a plain towelling. The cotton content keeps it soft and absorbent, while the polyester helps it hold its shape and wear well over time. Ideal for blouses, shirts, shorts, loungewear and beachwear, it’s a reliable choice for relaxed, everyday pieces.
