Shop the rangeAn all-time classic; woven from organic cotton and packed with timeless picnic charm. This yarn-dyed gingham fabric is coloured thread by thread for rich, long-lasting colour that won’t fade in the wash.
The 5mm black gingham check is a true wardrobe classic, while the washed, gently crinkled finish gives it that lovely worn-in feel from the very first cut. The classic black and white check evokes vintage handmade heirloom pieces - it’s cheerful, nostalgic, and a joy to sew with.
Heavier than standard shirting cotton, this mid-to-heavyweight fabric is made for relaxed tailoring, vintage-style dresses, smocks, wide-leg trousers and workwear-inspired tops. And the best part? It ages like a dream - softening over time and developing its own one-of-a-kind texture.

All orders are lovingly wrapped in recycled tissue and re-purposed packaging, ready to arrive and be made into exciting creations.
Since every computer monitor and mobile device is different, we cannot guarantee the colour will be an exact match to what you see online. Make use of our Swatch Service to ensure this fabric is suitable for your project.
We’ll carefully pack and send your order within 1–3 working days (Mon–Fri). All deliveries are handled by trusted Royal Mail services or our secure Tracked & Signed parcel service.
Please note that cut fabrics, sewing patterns and threads cannot be returned unless faulty. If you change your mind, haberdashery items and sewing tools can be returned within 14 days - as long as they’re unused and in their original packaging. Swatches are non-refundable
Every parcel is checked before it leaves us, but if something does arrive damaged or not quite right, just let us know within 28 days and we’ll put it right straight away.
