Remnant - 1.5m - 10.5oz Upcycled Striped Denim - Pale Blue/Natural Fleck *Flawed*

This listing is for a remnant piece of fabric measuring 1.5 meters (1.6 yards) in length.

*Please note that this listing is for flawed fabric. (Slubs throughout). We feel that the fabric is still very useable and has been priced accordingly. All sales are final.

This sturdy and hardwearing denim comes to us from The New Denim Project, a third-generation textile mill in Guatemala that focuses on natural fibres and circular manufacturing. This fabric is made entirely from recycled garment industry waste. These fibers are spun and rewoven into a durable, upcycled, and 100% biodegradable textile that is both chemical and dye-free, minimizing water and energy consumption. Midweight with a structured drape, this fabric feels soft straight off the bolt making it the perfect choice for beginner sewists or those new to jeans making. Featuring a pale blue and natural fleck stripe, this bottom weight is ideal for chore coats, overalls, jumpsuits, and all sorts of workwear-inspired garments. Stripes run perpendicular to the selvedge, though you may wish to lay your pattern pieces cross-grain for a vertical stripe.  

Due to the nature of the upcycling process, there may be irregularities throughout the yardage. We encourage you to embrace these slubs and nubbly textures as they are a natural result of recycling (and reducing) cotton waste.
