This Olive Cotton Bedford Corduroy combines a sturdy 100% cotton weave with subtle lengthwise ridges, perfect for jackets, bags and structured handmade garments.
Olive is a versatile earthy green that pairs easily with both neutrals and richer autumnal shades. The subtle ridged texture gives the plain colour added depth without creating a strong directional pattern.
This 100% cotton Bedford corduroy has a substantial 355gsm weight, giving it plenty of body and durability for jackets, bags and other hard-wearing projects.
The weave has faint lengthwise ridges, which are much less pronounced than those found on traditional corduroy. One of the useful differences is that this fabric doesn't have a directional nap, so you don't need to worry about cutting all your pattern pieces in the same direction.
Lauren used this fabric for her Noodlehead Making Backpack - see the gallery for pictures!
