Description
This cotton linen creases the way linen does. That belongs to the fabric and cannot be pressed away for good. At 115 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 69 % cotton and 31 % linen. Mind the residual shrinkage of 5 %: wash the fabric once before cutting, the way you will wash the finished piece.
With Grey/Black/Beige you choose a tone that reads neither warm nor cold and therefore never goes out of fashion. An abstract pattern commits to no theme and so suits adult clothing as readily as decor. A universal needle and a straight stitch are all it takes — woven cotton needs no more.
What Baumwoll-Leinen Adria Abstrakt Grau/Schwarz/Beige von Swafing is suitable for
- blouses and shirts
- cushions and table linen
- bags and pouches

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
