Cotton Poplin Fabric - St Piran's Cornish Tartan 4cm

A true Cornish classic, this St Piran's Cornish Tartan is woven in the traditional colours of black, white and red. The lightweight shirt-weight cotton has a crisp, easy-to-sew handle, making it a particularly useful choice for everyday garments with a distinctly Cornish character.

The tartan is yarn dyed, meaning the cotton yarns are dyed before the fabric is woven rather than printing the design onto the finished cloth. This gives the tartan a rich, defined appearance with the colour running through the weave, so both sides of the fabric look equally good.

With its lightweight handle, this 100% cotton fabric is ideal for shirts, blouses, dresses, skirts and lightweight trousers. It would also make a great choice for Cornish-inspired accessories, children's clothing and sewing projects where the tartan deserves to be the star. The tartan has a 4cm repeat, so bear this in mind when planning pattern placement and matching the design across seams.

A lightweight woven cotton with a genuine Cornish identity, St Piran's Tartan is made for showing a little love for Cornwall through what you sew.
