Printed Feather Corduroy – 100% Cotton, 3 Metre Piece (148cm Wide)

Printed Feather Corduroy – 100% Cotton (3 Metre Piece)

This is a gorgeous feather corduroy – a very fine cord with around 24 wales (ribs) per inch, made from 100% cotton and printed with a lovely all-over design. The fine wale gives it a softer, lighter feel than chunky corduroy, while still keeping that subtle cord texture.

It’s comfortable to wear, easy to sew and has a nice balance of drape and structure, making it ideal for both adult and children’s sewing. Think dresses, skirts, shirts, dungarees, pinafores and cosy tops, as well as children’s clothing and accessories.

Each listing is for a 3 metre piece, which is a really useful length for full garments, matching sets or a mix of smaller projects.

Sewing & care notes

• Pre-wash before cutting to allow for natural cotton shrinkage

• Wash at 30–40°C with similar colours

• Line dry if possible

• Press on the reverse side to protect the pile and print

• Cut all pattern pieces in the same nap direction so the colour and texture look consistent
