COTTON FRENCH TERRY FABRIC - BURGUNDY BROWN - 340 GSM

COTTON FRENCH TERRY FABRIC - BURGUNDY BROWN

This burgundy brown French terry has a smooth surface with a matte appearance. It feels soft to the touch and distinctly substantial when folded. The looped underside gives the wrong side its characteristic texture. The fabric retains its shape and stability while draping gently across a larger area.

Softness and knit construction

The French terry weighs 340 GSM and is made of 100% cotton. It is thick, soft, and fully opaque. The fabric remains pleasant and gentle against the skin. Its substantial body matters at hems, especially when several layers meet in one place. A test fold will reveal the edge thickness and how the seam lies. A larger piece allows the softness of the drape and shape retention to be assessed.

Burgundy and brown in one shade

The color can be paired with cream, beige, or dark navy. When combining it with other browns, compare actual samples in natural light. Differences in tone are clearly visible on the smooth, matte surface. Ribbed trim introduces a change in texture, while exposed loops reveal the French terry's other side. Assess the proportions of these surfaces at a turned-back edge or on a sample of the planned finish.

Fabric behavior, cutting, and sewing preparation

The fabric is nonstretch, so ease for movement and dressing must be included in the pattern construction. Check circumference measurements and openings before cutting. The knit's stability is useful when positioning the pieces. Its year-round uses include sweats, children's clothing, and bathrobes. In these applications, make use of the pleasant hand at the edges as well. A sample join with several layers allows the feel on the inside to be assessed and the finish matched to the area where it will touch the body. Also consider how the fabric behaves during wear when cutting and preparing finishes. The width is 175 cm. Lay the fabric freely on the work surface and support the remaining length to preserve its natural dimensions. Plan large pattern pieces, small details, and allowances together. During the sewing test, check how the layers feed and how the seam feels on the looped side. This will help you choose a finish suited to the area of skin contact.

Care and durability

The French terry has a silicone finish. It resists frequent washing and retains its shape and color afterward. Low shrinkage supports dimensional stability, while a low tendency to wrinkle makes care easier. The fabric also resists abrasion, pilling, stretching out, and distortion. These qualities help it retain its shape well during regular use.
