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.
A good lining fabric is one of those details you only really notice when it’s missing, and this black viscose polyester blend feels properly luxurious compared to many cheaper synthetic linings. Smooth, fluid and lightly polished across the surface, it glides beautifully over clothing whilst adding that clean professional finish that instantly makes handmade garments feel more expensive.
The viscose and polyester blend is what makes this sort of lining so popular in tailoring and dressmaking. The viscose adds softness, breathability and drape, helping garments feel more comfortable to wear, whilst the polyester improves durability, crease resistance and overall strength. Lightweight at approximately 80gsm, it works brilliantly for lining jackets, coats, skirts, dresses, trousers and occasion wear without adding unnecessary bulk.
