Fabric Of The Week : Soft Black Bamboo

Fabric Of The Week : Soft Black Bamboo

Charlie Bradley Ross Monday, 15 July 2013

Lightweight and beautifully drapey, this black bamboo fabric has a slightly open-weave that makes it incredibly breathable. Although matte and dry to touch, its sateen weave gives it subtle sheen. Perfect for summer days (despite it’s colour!), a great fabric for Bags, Bath Robes, Bed Sheets & Pillowcases, Blinds, Blouses, Curtains & Pelmets, Flags, Gowns, Hand Sewing, Hankerchiefs, Scarves & Neckwear, Jackets & Cloaks, Lining & Pocketing, Machine Sewing, Napkins, Placemats, Rugs & Underlay, Soft Furnishings, Summer Skirts & Dresses, Tea Cosy & Door Stops, Trousers & Shorts, Underwear & Lingerie!
