Discover the Magic of Quilting Cotton
If you’ve ever stepped into the world of sewing, chances are you’ve encountered quilting cotton very early on, and for good reason. This humble woven fabric is often underestimated, but there’s a quiet magic to quilting cotton that makes it one of my favourite materials to sew with, especially for beginners.
Beginner-Friendly and Forgiving
Quilting cotton is stable, breathable, and easy to handle. It doesn’t stretch, slip, or curl the way some fabrics do, which makes it ideal when you’re still getting used to your sewing machine. For beginners, that predictability matters. You can focus on learning straight seams, seam allowances, and construction without fighting the fabric itself.
Quilting cotton is often my go-to fabric for beginner sewing classes as it builds confidence quickly.
Perfect for Learning (and Loving) Slow Fashion
While quilting cotton is commonly associated with quilts, it’s also wonderful for everyday sewing projects. Like dresses, skirts, tops, bags, pouches, and accessories. Sewing with it helps you slow down and appreciate the process: cutting carefully, stitching mindfully, and finishing seams properly.
When you put time and care into making something, you naturally value it more. That’s the heart of slow fashion — creating pieces you’ll wear, use, and love for a long time.
A Fabric That Grows With You
Quilting cotton meets you where you are. It supports you when you’re just starting out, and it continues to shine as your skills grow. From your first handmade project to more advanced designs, it remains a reliable, joyful fabric to work with.
Sometimes, the most magical things aren’t flashy or complicated. They’re simply dependable, creative, and full of possibility, and that’s exactly what quilting cotton is.
High Quality Material
Our quilting cotton are 100% cotton, imported from Korea and are Oeko-Tex certified. What this means is that the quilting cotton you get from us will always be of high quality and are certified safe.
That said, it is still highly recommended that you give the fabric a wash before cutting so that any shrinkage that happens, will happen before you use it. This ensures that you do not end up with a piece too small after a wash.
Best way to wash it is to put it in a laundry net and launder how you would launder your clothes (especially if you are making clothes). Of course, the best way is still cold wash and, preferably, no dryer.
At the end of the day, your make, your choice. What would project will you be using quilting cotton for?
