Dressmaking and childrenswear with brushed jersey
Brushed jersey provides warmth alongside the natural stretch and give of a knit textile. The surface has a brushed nap that creates a soft texture against the skin, making it well suited for garments worn directly next to the body. Dressmakers regularly choose this material for sewing handmade t-shirts, everyday dresses, and children's clothing, as well as nursery projects like light blankets. Knitted cotton and smooth DTY fabrics flex comfortably as you move, accommodating seams without losing their shape.
Widths and designs across the range
Most of the rolls in this selection measure 150cm (60 inches) wide. This wider cut gives dressmakers generous layout space for pattern pieces, whether you are cutting longer dress panels or full sleeves. The range features several print styles to suit different tastes and age groups:
- Classic motifs, including polka dots and polka hearts.
- Botanical themes, such as flower prints and fruit patterns.
- Playful illustrations, including bear prints and animal designs for younger wearers.
Cotton remains an industry favourite due to its high tensile strength, which provides reliable durability for everyday garments. Paired with a brushed surface, it gives sewing projects a balance of resilience and softness.
