Woven Fabrics
Not every sewing project calls for a knit! Woven fabrics are a staple for creating everything from everyday shirts and dresses to structured pants, skirts and children's clothing. With a wide range of fibres, weights, textures and prints to choose from, there's plenty to explore when planning your next handmade wardrobe.
At Wicked Fabrics, I've curated a collection of woven fabrics with a focus on quality, considered sourcing and practical options for everyday sewing. Our range includes natural fibre options, fabric blends and selected OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified fabrics.

Choosing the right woven fabric
Woven fabrics generally have less stretch than knit fabrics, so choosing a fabric that matches your sewing pattern is important. Consider the weight, drape, structure and fibre content before making your selection. A lightweight cotton woven will behave quite differently from a heavier denim or a fluid linen blend.
Always check your sewing pattern's fabric recommendations and the individual product listing for composition, width, weight, care instructions and certification details. Selected fabrics in our collection are OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified, with details provided on individual listings.
If you're unsure about a colour, texture or fabric weight, ordering a swatch is a handy way to compare your options before purchasing by the metre.
