Japanese Butterfly Metallic Navy - Extra Wide 100% Cotton Fabric

A flutter of gold. This metallic cotton has a pretty butterfly design, enhanced with delicate metallic gilding. It’s smooth to the touch, breathable and has a lovely drape, with a rich, elegant feel.

It’s made for dressmaking, quilting, patchwork, bag making and home décor. Use it as a blender or a stand-alone fabric, or cut out the butterfly motifs for appliqué. At 150cm wide, with a soft finish and high quality, it’s also an excellent quilt backing, with fewer seams to piece.

It’s 100% cotton fabric at 135gsm, and its timeless design is made to inspire your next project.

Cotton is a natural, renewable fibre, and this fabric is made for years of sewing and washing. Unlike synthetics, it doesn’t hang around in landfill for centuries. The cotton base is biodegradable and breaks down naturally at the end of its life.
