Oxford Bleu

Oxford Bleu is a classic fabric by the metre for your sewing projects. This cotton fabric blend has the distinctive Oxford weave, giving it a smart yet casual look in a fresh light blue. Made from 75% cotton and 25% polyester, it combines the breathable comfort of cotton with the durability of polyester for a fabric that is pleasant to work with and comfortable to wear at 150 g/m².

A great choice for shirts and blouses

Oxford is well known as a traditional shirt fabric, and this quality shows exactly why. It feels soft against the skin while remaining strong and hard-wearing. The polyester content also makes it more crease-resistant than a 100% cotton version. With a width of 150 cm, you can cut your pattern pieces efficiently and make the most of your fabric.

You can use this dressmaking fabric for a timeless button-down shirt, an elegant blouse or even a light summer dress. It has enough structure for details such as cuffs and collar stands, while still draping nicely for a flattering fit. It is also a practical choice for children’s clothing, from a casual shirt to a pretty dress.
