Coated cotton wipes clean and repels water — meant for bags, bibs and table linen. The web measures 69 cm across; its weight comes to 240 g/m². Its composition reads 100 % cotton.
Beige is a muted natural shade and therefore the quiet base for combinations with anything strong. A check asks for care while cutting: the lines should meet at the seams. Pressing before cutting pays off: a smooth fabric lies exactly, a creased one does not. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut.
What Baumwolle beschichtet Gemüse auf Karo is suitable for

Frequently asked questions
The fabric does not stretch — is that a problem?
No, but the pattern has to allow for it. With wovens, freedom of movement comes from width, pleats and darts rather than stretch. A jersey pattern cannot simply be sewn in a woven.
What is bias binding?
A strip cut at forty-five degrees to the grain. In that direction even a woven stretches, which is exactly why it binds a curve cleanly.
Does the colour bleed in the wash?
Strongly dyed cotton can give off a little colour in its first wash. That is why you pre-wash, and separately. After that the fabric is normally colour-stable.
Which needle do I need?
A universal needle in a medium size covers most cottons. On dense or coated qualities go one size up, on fine batiste one size down.
