The Sewing Bee Effect
The Sewing Bee returns on 14th July 2026. Discover why the show inspires thousands of sewists every year and the fabrics we expect to see more of.
This vibrant red cotton-rich jersey has a lovely soft handle and an easy drape that makes it a pleasure to sew and wear. Running across the width are softly puckered stretch stripes that create a subtle textured effect, giving the fabric extra depth while keeping it smooth and comfortable against the skin. The colour sits somewhere between pillar box red and coral, making it a real statement fabric.
At 185gsm, it's an excellent all-round jersey for everyday dressmaking. The textured stripes add interest to even the simplest patterns, making it ideal for T-shirts, relaxed dresses, skirts, children's clothing and lightweight loungewear. Comfortable stretch lets it move naturally with the body while recovering its shape beautifully after wear.
