Yellow Flower Print Cotton Poplin – 142cm / 56" Wide – 100% Cotton – 3m Piece

A cheerful 100% cotton poplin featuring a bright yellow floral print with a fresh, summery feel.

The sunny floral design gives this fabric plenty of character without being overly busy, making it a wonderfully versatile print for both adults' and children's projects. It's one of those easy-to-use florals that works just as beautifully for everyday dressmaking as it does for quilting, accessories and colourful craft projects.

At approximately 110gsm, it's a lovely lightweight cotton poplin with that characteristic smooth, lightly crisp handle. It has enough structure to hold its shape beautifully while still feeling soft and comfortable, with a much nicer drape than many traditional craft cottons.

Fresh, cheerful and incredibly useful, this is a brilliant all-round cotton for adding a splash of sunshine to your sewing.

New To Cotton Poplin?

Cotton poplin is a smooth, closely woven cotton fabric with a lightly crisp handle and enough structure to hold its shape beautifully.

It's one of those incredibly useful fabrics that crosses between dressmaking and craft sewing. It's lighter and more wearable than many heavier craft cottons, while its stable woven construction makes it much easier to handle than slippery or stretchy fabrics.

It cuts cleanly, presses beautifully and is particularly beginner friendly, making it a brilliant choice for everything from dresses and shirts to quilting, bags and accessories.
