Description
Cotton woven is the most versatile fabric in the range: firmly woven, stable and without stretch — the classic for blouses, shirts, skirts and patchwork. At 143 g/m² and 135 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 100 % cotton.
With Red you get depth. Even small areas read stronger in it than their size suggests. A batik gradient differs slightly on every length — which is exactly the appeal of these fabrics. Wovens fray at the cut edge — so finishing belongs to every seam, whether by zigzag or overlocker.
What Baumwolle Batikmuster in Rot is suitable for
- blouses and shirts
- curtains and drapes
- accessories and decor

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.
