GBSB Ep7 Inspiration: Stitching for the Dancefloor
From liquid satin and denim to metallic jersey, sequins and velvet, discover our fabric inspiration from Sewing Bee Music Week.
Some fabrics just make you want to wrap yourself up in them immediately, and this double sided velveteen is definitely one of those. Soft on both sides with a rich velvety surface and gentle stretch, it has that cosy luxurious feel that instantly makes a project feel more indulgent. The black colouring gives it depth and elegance whilst the subtle sheen across the pile catches the light beautifully without looking overly shiny or theatrical.
At 280gsm it has enough weight to feel warm and comforting whilst still draping softly around the body. Perfect for oversized shawls, luxury lounge sets, relaxed jackets, cosy separates and home craft projects where softness is the whole point. It’s the sort of fabric that turns an ordinary evening on the sofa into “I’m not getting changed out of this any time soon.” Easy to sew, comforting to wear and wonderfully tactile, this is comfort fabric at its absolute best.
