Introduction:
Corduroy fabrics never really go out of fashion and for the last couple of years, we have seen a real revival of this fabric, especially for the fashion-conscious. Corduroy fabrics have been used throughout the '70s, '80s & '90s fashion revival, for everything from flared jeans and matching blazers to cute and practical pinafore dresses, skirts and jeans-style jackets.
Colour:
Classic Indigo Blue is a seriously dark navy with indigo-blue (deep denim style) undertones. Indigo is a deep and ancient tone that goes with so many other colours and the perfect alternative to black!
Indigo is very similar, with a slightly darker all-over tone when compared alongside its sister fabric: Navy Blue Shadow - Jumbo Corduroy (3 Wale).
Properties:
An excellent and practical dressed-down version of velvet, adding a soft and luxurious look & feel to your A/W wardrobe. This hard-wearing breathable cotton is not just for country clothing and children's wear.
3 Wale refers to 3 cords per inch, this is a seriously chunky corduroy fabric that's stable yet malleable, and with a soft velvety sheen it feels as soft as a fluffy kitten, with its heavy drape quality making it suitable for a host of stylish and practical clothing for the whole family.
Garment Suggestions:
Make comfortable garments for you and yours, from baby & toddler elasticated-waist trousers, skirts and dungarees, to grown-up stylish pleat-fronted trousers or trendy jean styles with matching blazers or denim style jackets.
Pretty winter dresses with ruffled tiers or smock style pinafore dresses, neat pencil or jeans style skirts like The Pattern Stash - Amelia Skirt, practical pinafores like Sew Different - Scoop Pinafore cosy overshirts/ shackets and shirt dresses. This cosy cotton velvet will make superb longer-length coats too!! Corduroy is most definitely not dated!
Other Uses:
Use any leftovers & scraps for: cushions, loose covers, hats, caps, bags and so much more!
* We strongly recommend a 30°C pre-wash before using this fabric as dye is loose - just like denim! *
