A Practical Guide to Cotton Lawn Fabric
Cotton lawn is one of those fabrics you come back to, light, breathable and easy to sew. A guide to how it feels, what to make and where to start.
This abstract sweatshirt fabric has a playful hand-drawn feel with colourful doodles, brushstroke shapes and scattered geometric markings printed across a soft grey marl background. The mix of red, sky blue, lilac, mustard, green and navy gives it a bright energetic look without feeling overpowering, almost like a sketchbook or painted mural translated onto fabric. It’s the sort of print that instantly turns a simple hoodie or sweatshirt into the main feature of an outfit.
The front has the appearance of a soft sweatshirt jersey whilst the reverse features a cosy alpine fleece backing that feels warm and comfortable against the skin. At 300gsm it has a lovely weight without becoming stiff or bulky, making it ideal for everyday casual sewing. The polyester, cotton and elastane blend gives durability, softness and practical stretch, with around 30% stretch along the selvedge and 40% across the width for extra comfort and movement. Perfect for hoodies, joggers, sweatshirts, oversized tops, children’s clothing and relaxed lounge sets.
