Properties:
Country Woman boasts a high thread count flat weave of the softest organic cotton with a touch of elastane, allowing a comfortable ease across the width. This versatile fabric is soft but very strong and hardwearing - with a stable hand and soft and reassuringly comforting drape quality when used at length. Lightweight but certainly not flimsy - this shirting cotton fabric is heavier than your usual poplin and has more body - perfect for creating fullness with pleats or gathers should you choose.
Garment Suggestions:
Create your classic shirts and blouses- the elastane allows for more slim fitting styles perfect for equestrian style ladies wear. choose more utilitarian styles with lots of pockets, topstitching and other useful hardwearing details for walking- outdoor style shirts/ jackets etc.
Create smock-style tunics and pinafore dresses with a cottage-core, country style. Add gathered details, skirts, tiers and ruffles to soften the look- patterns such as Tilly and the Buttons - Marnie Blouse is a great example. Simplicity Patterns - Dottie Angels Collection has cottage core styles perfect to make in this fabric.
This hardwearing organic cotton fabric will make super cute and practical children's clothing; lightweight dungarees pinafores, shorts, pull-on trousers with utility pockets etc. Create some matching adult dungarees using our Pattern Stash's Lynsey Dungarees Pattern.
