Description
Denim is firm, rugged and woven in twill — the fabric for trousers that last years. 190 g/m² at 135 cm wide: calculate your yardage from the width, not from the pattern alone. Material: 70 % cotton, 2 % elastane and 28 % polyester.
A fabric in Black/Grey Tones reads festive or everyday, depending on what you make from it. An abstract pattern commits to no theme and so suits adult clothing as readily as decor. Wovens fray at the cut edge — so finishing belongs to every seam, whether by zigzag or overlocker.
What Denim Abstract in Black/Grey Tones is suitable for
- blouses and shirts
- patchwork and quilting
- cushions and table linen

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
