Calico is a natural fibre derived from cotton. It is a breathable, light and airy fabric that has many uses in sewing. Calico can be used for making canvas for screenprinting, arts and crafts, trial runs or pattern making for garment making as well as bags and soft furnishings for the home. Calico has an understated beauty due to its unrefined natural colouring and texture from the cotton seed remnants left in the cloth (the little black dots). This provides a perfect base fabric to dye, print or paint on. Available in white, black or unbleached natural. Create soft furnishings for the home Calico has a natural feel and can make understated cushions, tablecloths, table runners and curtain or blind backing. Mock up garments on the mannequin Calico is a cost-effective fabric for novice sewers just starting out or seamstresses perfecting their patterns before they work with the real fabric and a must-have practice fabric.
