Description
Canvas takes wear other cottons cannot — which is why it sits on bags, aprons and cushions. The fabric comes 140 cm wide and brings 245 g/m² to the scale. Its composition reads 100 % cotton.
Wool White is the colour for anything meant to look airy. In summer a pale fabric reads noticeably lighter than a dark one. As a plain colour the fabric partners patterned combinations — it steps back and keeps the surface quiet. The fabric does not stretch. That makes it precise to cut and forgiving to sew, but the pattern has to allow for movement.
What Canvas in Wool White is suitable for
- skirts and dresses
- patchwork and quilting
- bags and pouches

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to pre-wash?
Yes. Cotton shrinks, by varying amounts depending on the finish. Wash the fabric the way you will wash the finished piece, press it, and only then cut.
How much fabric do I need?
That depends on the pattern, the fabric width and the print. Large motifs demand waste, since pieces have to be placed to match. On repeat prints allow half a metre more.
Does it suit patchwork?
Yes, woven cotton is the standard material for it. It cuts precisely, does not distort while sewing and presses flat — three qualities that matter in patchwork.
Does it suit children's clothes?
For shirts, skirts, dresses and trousers yes. For t-shirts and anything close-fitting a knit is the better choice, because it moves — a woven does not.
