Description
Woven cotton is the obvious choice when a piece should hold its shape — from a shirt to a cushion cover. At 140 cm wide its weight per square metre is 120 g/m². It is woven from 100 % cotton.
Mint is the tone for everything that belongs outdoors — and for children's clothes meant to take something. Its marled look comes from light and dark fibres and makes the surface livelier than a plain tone. Pressing before cutting pays off: a smooth fabric lies exactly, a creased one does not.
What Cotton Woven Marled in Mint is suitable for
- blouses and shirts

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
