Classic Black - Stretch Denim (11oz)
Classic Black - Stretch Denim (11oz), this deep-dyed solid black fabric with a heavy twill weave has so much going for it!
Boasting ample usable width and a super strong and stable handle (and a useful 2% elastane across the width) with slight ease on the length.
Black denim wearers, this is the fabric that will make all your key pieces; from jeans and denim jackets to dungarees, pinafore dresses, french aprons, boiler suits, hats caps, bags and so much more.
Denim was originally designed for hard-wearing workwear and has become a fashion staple that we can't imagine life without. What will you make from this versatile denim? Classic Black is perfect for jeans, especially classic black straight leg styles, dungarees like our The Pattern Stash - Lynsey Dungarees and pinafore dresses. Neat skirts such as our new Amelia Skirt! Practical pinafores, french aprons and classic denim jackets will also look excellent.
Don't feel limited to typical denim styles; Classic Black is also perfect for smart/casual styles, think blazers with bound seams. The Merchant & Mills 'The Foreman' is the perfect men's jacket pattern.
Add some contrasting topstitching, colourful embroidered patches and unique buttons or chunky feature zips and you will have created your own designer styles!
Now every member of the family can have denim garments, all made from this hard-wearing classic!
We strongly recommend pre-washing your fabric (separately) before making your garment as there will be some colour rub to this deep dye denim when new.
We also recommend purchasing a little extra to allow for possible shrinkage - common in denim fabrics (and subsequent washing with dark colours only). This excellent denim will fade and wear subtly and beautifully.
