Description
This canvas has body: a bag made from it does not collapse when empty and carries heavy contents. 140 cm wide, 200 g/m² — figures that tell you how heavily the fabric falls. Material: 85 % cotton and 15 % polyester.
The tone Red/Natural is full and warm. On black, denim and natural shades it comes out especially clean. Dyed plain, the fabric lets cut and construction work; a cuff or a companion fabric takes over the pattern elsewhere. For blouses, shirts, skirts and dresses woven cotton is the classic choice — it holds the shape the pattern sets.
What Canvas in Red/Natural is suitable for
- blouses and shirts
- patchwork and quilting
- accessories and decor

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
