Add Colour with Cotton Twill

You'll love sewing with the beautiful and durable 8oz Ventana Twill! Available in 28 shades, this midweight fabric is a great option to adding cooler weather garments into your wardrobe!

If you'd like to sew a more colourful pair of pants, jacket or skirt, look no further. Ventana features the characteristic twill weave pattern of diagonal parallel ribs. This weave creates a beautiful texture that’s durable, pliable, and more resistant to wrinkling.

It’s even less prone to getting dirty thanks to its irregular surface texture and tight weave. What more could you want for hard wearing pants, jackets and upholstery projects?

With Autumn sewing projects on our minds, Ventana is a great fabric option for wearing on cool late summer evenings to chilly winter days.

This Fall every closet needs a statement jacket in a fun colour like Red Canyon or Light Purple. Both of these shades (who are we kidding, all of the Ventana shades) would look amazing paired with the tried and true Ilford Jacket (multi-gendered) or Cortland Trench (2 size options).

A cute pair of cropped pants like the Lander would also be a great option for Ventana! To copy the look above, we recommend a great hue like Evergreen.

Finally, to round out our pattern suggestions, the Hollyburn is a versatile, workhorse skirt pattern that looks good in a variety of fabric drapes. Paired with the Ventana, the silhouette will be dramatic and fun. Any shade will look amazing, but we'd suggest a beautiful, rich hue like Wine or Colbalt.
