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 reads festive or everyday, depending on what you make from it. A universal needle and a straight stitch are all it takes — woven cotton needs no more. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off.
What Denim in Black is suitable for
- skirts and dresses
- children's clothing
- bags and pouches

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
