Cotton woven is the most versatile fabric in the range: firmly woven, stable and without stretch — the classic for blouses, shirts, skirts and patchwork. The fabric is 137 cm wide and weighs 119 g/m². It is made from 100 % cotton.
Ochre brings warmth into a project. Even a small area of it makes a piece distinctly friendlier. A batik gradient differs slightly on every length — which is exactly the appeal of these fabrics. Wovens fray at the cut edge — so finishing belongs to every seam, whether by zigzag or overlocker.
What Baumwolle Batik einzigartig gefertigt Grün/Erdtöne auf Ocker is suitable for
- skirts and dresses
- patchwork and quilting
- curtains and drapes
Frequently asked questions
Why does the fabric fray at the edge?
Because a woven is made of crossed threads that loosen at a cut edge. That is normal. Finish with zigzag, an overlocker or an enclosed seam — otherwise the edge unravels further with every wash.
What do I watch for when cutting?
The grain. Pattern pieces are aligned parallel to the selvedge, otherwise the finished piece distorts. On patterned goods the motif direction comes on top. The grain line appears on the pattern piece as an arrow; it runs parallel to the selvedge.
How do I press it?
At the usual cotton temperature and slightly damp. Before cutting it pays off especially: a smoothly pressed fabric cuts precisely, a creased one does not.
What do I do with offcuts?
Keep them, especially patterned ones. In patchwork the small cut is the rule, and narrow strips still serve for pocket bags, appliqué or binding. Narrow strips make bias binding, wider offcuts become pocket bags.
