Description
Woven piqué shows a fine waffle structure and so has more grip than a smooth woven. At 170 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 100 % cotton.
With Mint you choose a colour that reads fresh in spring and muted in autumn. Its animal motifs turn the fabric into an eye-catcher for children's clothes — from shirt to cushion. Wovens fray at the cut edge — so finishing belongs to every seam, whether by zigzag or overlocker. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off.
What Baumwoll Pique Tretautos und Schaukelpferde auf Mint is suitable for
- patchwork and quilting
- cushions and table linen
- children's clothing

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.
