## Fabric Overview

This organic cotton drill fabric combines dependable durability with a soft pastel powder-blue shade. Its tightly woven twill construction creates a smooth, sturdy surface with excellent stability, making it particularly suitable for utility garments and structured sewing projects.

At approximately 270 GSM, the fabric is a versatile midweight drill—substantial and fully opaque without the bulk of heavyweight canvas. It holds its shape well while remaining breathable and comfortable for everyday wear.

## How the Fabric Is Made

The fabric is woven from organic cotton yarns in a compact 3/1 left-hand twill, commonly known as a drill weave.

Its high thread density and pronounced diagonal structure provide strength, durability, and resistance to everyday wear. The smooth surface gives finished garments a clean, polished appearance, while the powder-blue colour softens the traditionally utilitarian character of cotton drill.

## Wash and Care

Pre-washing is recommended before cutting, as natural cotton may shrink during the first wash.

Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Wash similar colours together and do not bleach.

Line dry where possible or tumble dry on low heat. Iron on a medium cotton setting from the reverse side.
