Bright Orange Cotton Drill - 148cm /58" Wide - 100% Cotton

This is a bold bright orange 100% cotton drill, woven in a classic twill structure that gives the fabric strength, durability and a subtle diagonal texture.

Cotton drill is a practical, hard-wearing fabric that still sews nicely and softens with washing and wear. It has enough body to hold structure, making it ideal for garments and projects where you want something more substantial than lightweight cotton.
