Specifications:

Weight: Light / Medium

GSM: 310

Composition: 95% Cotton 5% Elastane

Width: 120cm / 47.2inch

Colour:

This stretch moleskin fabric sports a calming verdigris blue-green hue and is an ideal colour for spring – perfect teamed with other muted pastels and neutrals and still has the warmth needed for those cooler days.

Properties:

This stroke-able, soft and velvety moleskin is ideal for accents on collars, pocket flaps etc often featured on country tweed- like our Heart of Huddersfield collections for jackets and coats. Stable (until stretched widthwise, we advise the use of iron on interfacing for areas that require more stability on the width). The retentive stretch on the width is perfect for comfy closer fitting clothing. Cotton fabric is breathable and hard-wearing, yet boasts a soft and heavy drape quality.

Garment Suggestions:

Moleskins, velvets and corduroys in general are having quite a revival. Fashion often dictates our choices when dressmaking, whether you follow the fashions to the book or loosely make a reference to them. We have been seeing fashions from the 70s – 90s filtering down onto today’s high street.

Also favoured for classic styles such as country wear and childrens clothing because of its comfortable, hard-wearing and classic style, there are a host of things you will want to make from Veritable Verdigris.

Perfect for a cosy layer for outer clothing or comforting shirts and tunics, pinafore dresses come A/W.

Make super comfy garments for you and yours, from baby’s and toddler’s dungarees and trousers (add some richly coloured cotton flannel to turn ups and cuffs on matching jackets), to grown-up, high waist-fitted touser styles, super comfy -boiler suits and jumpsuits.
