Description
Muslin is the summer fabric par excellence: it cools, drapes softly and looks intentional even crumpled. 205 g/m² at 130 cm wide: calculate your yardage from the width, not from the pattern alone. Material: 63 % cotton and 37 % polyester.
A fabric in Lime Green carries pattern well while staying a quiet ground. As a plain colour the fabric partners patterned combinations — it steps back and keeps the surface quiet. A universal needle and a straight stitch are all it takes — woven cotton needs no more.
What Muslin in Lime Green is suitable for
- patchwork and quilting
- cushions and table linen
- curtains and drapes

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.
