Description

Cotton Drill Fabric – Lightweight (200gsm) – 147cm Wide

Cotton Drill is a durable, tightly woven fabric featuring a distinctive diagonal twill weave that enhances its strength and structure. This lightweight 200gsm version offers excellent breathability while maintaining the durability associated with drill fabrics. It is a versatile choice for a wide range of applications, from clothing to home furnishings.


What is Cotton Drill?

Cotton Drill is a twill-weave fabric made from 100% cotton, recognizable by its strong diagonal ribbing. The twill weave makes it more durable and resistant to wear and tear compared to plain-weave cotton fabrics.

Drill fabric comes in various weights, from lightweight versions like this 200gsm fabric (suitable for garments and soft furnishings) to heavier 300gsm+ versions used for industrial workwear and upholstery.

This lighter-weight drill offers a balance between structure and breathability, making it ideal for projects requiring both durability and comfort.


What is It Used For?

🔹 Clothing & Apparel

  • Lightweight cotton drill is a popular choice for uniforms, casual trousers, skirts, jackets, and workwear where breathability is key.
  • Used in structured garments that need a crisp, clean finish.

🔹 Crafting & Home Furnishings

  • Ideal for making cushion covers, aprons, tote bags, and curtains.
  • Can be used for quilting and patchwork projects that require a sturdier fabric.

🔹 Lining & Backing Fabric

  • Works well as a backing fabric for projects like soft furnishings, upholstery, and even light-duty bag making.

🔹 DIY & Upholstery

  • Can be used for light upholstery, chair seat covers, and protective coverings due to its strength and flexibility.

Key Features & Benefits
