Description
Canvas is firmly and ruggedly woven. It holds shape and weight, which makes it the bag fabric par excellence. 150 cm wide, 230 g/m² — figures that tell you how heavily the fabric falls. Material: 100 % cotton.
The tone Turquoise/Orange sits in the cool range. Beside yellow and orange it builds the strongest contrast there is. Its floral pattern gives the fabric its theme — depending on the cut it reads playful or calm. Wovens fray at the cut edge — so finishing belongs to every seam, whether by zigzag or overlocker.
What Baumwollcanvas Rocha Blumen, Streifen türkis/orange by Swafing is suitable for
- blouses and shirts
- skirts and dresses
- children's clothing

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
