Description
Fleece weighs little and warms a lot — which is why it sits in jackets, blankets and children's winter clothes. At 230 g/m² and 140 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 100 % polyester.
With Light Blue you get a colour that suits denim and still does not disappear into it. Fleece is not waterproof; for rainwear it belongs as a warm inner layer beneath an outer fabric. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off. Small leftovers work well for hats or appliqués.
What Fleece in Light Blue is suitable for
- Hats, scarves and headbands, because small pieces need no edge finishing.
- Overalls and sleeping bags for children, as the fabric is warm and washable at 30 degrees.
- Linings for jackets, because fleece adds warmth without adding weight.

Frequently asked questions
How do I wash the fabric?
At 30 degrees, ideally turned inside out and without fabric softener so the pile stays fluffy. Do not tumble dry; let it dry hanging or flat in the air. Bleach is off limits according to the care label.
May I iron the fabric?
No, not according to the care label. Heat flattens the pile and can make polyester shiny. Instead, smooth the seams with your fingers or topstitch them closely so they lie flat.
Which needle do I take?
A jersey or stretch needle with a rounded point slips between the loops instead of piercing them. Combine it with a slight zigzag or overlock stitch so the seam does not break when the fabric moves.
Does it suit children's clothes?
Yes, very much. Fleece is light, warm and washable at 30 degrees, good for jumpers, overalls, hats and sleeping bags. Jackets worn in the rain additionally need a waterproof outer fabric.
