What is Poly cotton fabric ?

Poly cotton fabric is a mix of polyester and Cotton (Cotton is a natural fibre from the cotton plant & polyester is a synthetic fibre usually made from petroleum) The amount of polyester that is combined with cotton to make the fabric varies but is usually about 20% polyester & 80% cotton. It is a light weight fabric which is really versatile and durable, it can be used for dressmaking, patchwork and bedlinen as well as lots of other craft projects.

Don't use a very hot iron as the polyester can melt if subjected to a high temperature. The disadvantages of poly cotton are that it is usually a lighter thinner fabric. It is not as breathable as 100% cotton fabric making it a poorer choice for clothing in hot weather. Some poly cotton fabrics also don't hold the dye quite as well as 100% cotton so take care when washing bright colours with paler colours as there can sometimes be some leaching of colour in the wash.
