Boho Reverie Babycord | Peacock

More About This Fabric

Our Boho Reverie Babycords are a gorgeous collection of printed 100% cotton babycord fabrics, designed to coordinate with the Boho Reverie quilted velvet range.

Babycord is loved for its wonderfully soft handle, fine ribbed texture and easy-to-wear structure. It has enough body for styles that benefit from a little shape, while still feeling comfortable and supple enough for everyday wear. These prints bring together rich, earthy and jewel-toned colours with a slightly bohemian feel, making them a lovely choice for autumn and winter sewing.

These fabrics would be beautiful made into dresses, skirts, pinafores, shirts, lightweight jackets, overshirts, trousers, dungarees and children’s wear, and they also pair wonderfully with the matching quilted velvets for coordinated makes. Think pocket details, facings, linings, accessories or matching separates.

A versatile and characterful collection for sewists who love fabric with a little texture and a lot of personality.

Babycord is a finer, lighter version of traditional corduroy, with delicate narrow ribs that give the fabric its distinctive texture without making it feel heavy or bulky.
Soft to the touch with a lovely velvety surface, it has enough body to hold its shape while remaining comfortable and easy to wear. This makes it a really versatile choice for garments that need a little structure without the weight of a heavier cord.
Its fine wale gives it a more subtle finish than classic corduroy, making it suitable for everything from casual everyday pieces to more polished autumn and winter garments.
As with all corduroy fabrics, babycord has a directional nap, so pattern pieces should be cut in the same direction for an even appearance.
