Fabrics





This region is not only known for its famous Westphalian ham, it's also a major fabric supplier.


  


These woven fabrics are made from 100% cotton and do not contain ace resin (like most cotton fabrics). They are free of formaldehyde and the colours are non-toxic. Since they are wear-resistant, they are suitable for children's clothing, curtains, cushions, soft toys and all sorts of textiles for the kitchen (tablecloths, potholders, aprons etc.)
I have a whole stack of these at home waiting patiently to be turned into something useful and pretty...but school has started, which means my time for sewing is once again limited. sigh...
