New cotton poplins are in the house! We know that you love a classic indigo and white colour palette and when coupled with these amazing  nautical inspired designs we know you'll be in love!

What's cotton poplin you ask? It's lighter weight than traditional quilting weight cotton (but you can still quilt with it - just don't tell the quilt police!) The fabric has super fine ribs which give it a lovely soft sheen and make it feel really smooth. It's crisp and easy to sew with. It's great for dressmaking too, it's got a bit of a drape, but it's not very fluid like a viscose or rayon would be.  And at only £7.50 per metre these fabrics are an absolute steal!
