- Versatile use: Perfect for patchwork, quilting, and making comfortable, warm clothing
- Convenient size: Available in a practical 135 x 220 cm format, suitable for various projects with less fabric waste
- Easy to maintain: Washable on a delicate cycle (30 °C), do not bleach, do not tumble dry, and iron at a maximum of 150 °C
- Optimal quilting distance: With a quilting distance between 10 and 20 cm, this fleece is excellent for a wide variety of quilting projects
Why 135 x 220 cm?
If you want to make a jacket, 220 cm length is sufficient.
The 135 cm width is almost fabric width, allowing you to cut the sleeves across the width.
With volume fleece, there is no grain direction; you place your pattern pieces next to each other and position the sleeve slightly diagonal underneath. Your pattern piece can then be up to about 85 cm long at most.
If you are making a longer jacket or your pattern pieces don’t fit side by side on the fabric, then order the other Bamboo Mix in 270 x 220 cm size...
(Of course, you fold the Bamboo Mix in half, so it’s 67.5 cm where both pieces must fit.) If in doubt, buy the larger piece!
