Fabric for Embroidery
Versatile cloth for surface embroidery, sashiko, and slow stitching.
This collection includes unprinted cotton and linen fabrics chosen for their balance, texture, and stitch-friendly hand. These fabrics support embroidery worked by eye or from a transferred pattern, allowing for expressive line work, layering, and improvisation.
They’re equally well suited to surface embroidery, sashiko, and other forms of mindful, hand-guided stitching.
In addition to the fabrics shown here, any Essex Linen fabrics also work well for embroidery.
Best for:
Surface embroidery, sashiko, slow stitching, monograms, and free-form work
