Description
A beautiful, vibrant cotton poplin featuring a colourful watercolour-style print inspired by the French Riviera. Pretty boutiques, striped café awnings, palm trees and charming Mediterranean architecture come together in a wonderful mix of cobalt blue, cherry red, pink, sunshine yellow and jade green, all set against a soft, light background.
From the ever-popular Rose & Hubble collection, this excellent quality 100% cotton poplin has a lovely soft, smooth handle with just enough structure to give garments shape and definition. Unlike more fluid fabrics such as viscose, cotton poplin holds its shape beautifully, making it particularly suitable for designs that require a little volume or structure.
Perfect for blouses, shirts, tops, skirts and dresses, especially styles featuring gathered skirts, puff sleeves, collars, cuffs and button plackets. We think it would make a fabulous 1950s-inspired sundress with a fitted bodice and full, gathered skirt!
Its versatility extends well beyond dressmaking. This lovely cotton is equally suited to patchwork and quilting, as well as cushions, bags, bunting, decorative home accessories and all sorts of creative sewing projects. The colourful illustrations would also be wonderful for projects that showcase individual sections of the print.
Naturally breathable and comfortable to wear, cotton poplin is a wonderful choice for dressmaking throughout the year. Its smooth surface makes it a pleasure to cut, sew and press, whether you’re creating something for your wardrobe or your home.
A joyful, colourful print with plenty of possibilities!
