GBSB Ep9 Inspiration: We Love Wardrobe Heroes
From biker jackets and reinvented shirts to the Little Black Dress, discover the fabrics we love from epidose 9 - Wardrobe Heroes Week on The Great British Sewing Bee.
Ridiculously cuddly is probably the best place to start with this one. This 100% polyester knitted plush fabric has a wonderfully soft, fleecy surface with a short, dense faux-fur pile that you cannot help running your hands over. The warm chocolate brown colour is rich without being too dark, and the pile catches the light beautifully, giving it subtle changes in tone as it moves. It feels substantial and cosy without being cumbersome or overly heavy.
There are loads of possibilities here beyond clothing. It would make gorgeous teddy bears, soft toys, cuddly animals, comforters, baby blankets, pram accessories, cushions and other craft projects, with the short pile particularly useful when you want that furry look without masses of fluff getting in the way of smaller pieces and details. For dressmaking, think cosy jackets, gilets, dressing gowns and children's outerwear, or use it for throws and soft furnishings. At 150cm wide, there is plenty to work with too. Basically, anything that ought to be stroked, hugged or snuggled into is fair game.
