Description
This canvas has body: a bag made from it does not collapse when empty and carries heavy contents. The fabric is 137 cm wide and weighs 230 g/m². It is made from 100 % cotton.
Purple Blue is the colour found most often in a wardrobe — and therefore the easiest to combine. The floral print runs across the whole surface, so no pattern piece comes out empty. For blouses, shirts, skirts and dresses woven cotton is the classic choice — it holds the shape the pattern sets.
What Canvas Flowers in Purple Blue is suitable for
- blouses and shirts
- children's clothing
- curtains and drapes

Frequently asked questions
What is bias binding?
A strip cut at forty-five degrees to the grain. In that direction even a woven stretches, which is exactly why it binds a curve cleanly.
Does the colour bleed in the wash?
Strongly dyed cotton can give off a little colour in its first wash. That is why you pre-wash, and separately. After that the fabric is normally colour-stable.
Which needle do I need?
A universal needle in a medium size covers most cottons. On dense or coated qualities go one size up, on fine batiste one size down.
The fabric does not stretch — is that a problem?
No, but the pattern has to allow for it. With wovens, freedom of movement comes from width, pleats and darts rather than stretch. A jersey pattern cannot simply be sewn in a woven.
