A beautifully soft 100% cotton chambray available in two versatile shades – Light Blue and Mid Blue.
Chambray has the timeless denim look but is lighter, softer and far easier to sew and wear. Woven using coloured warp threads with white weft threads, it has a subtle textured appearance that's perfect for clothing, children's wear and lightweight home décor.
At approximately 115gsm this lightweight cotton has a lovely drape whilst still offering enough body for shirts, dresses and everyday sewing projects.
