What is woven nursery fabric?
In addition to knitted fabrics, which are often available on the market, we specialize in woven fabrics for children's rooms.
Woven children's room fabric is textile by the meter that consists of a warp thread and a weft thread system. The warp and weft are woven vertically together to create a textile structure, i.e. the fabric. The important basic fabric types in the textile sector are:
- Plain weave
- Twill weave
- Atlas binding
Derivative types of fabric, for example elaborate pattern weavings, are based on the three types of base fabric mentioned.
Why is woven cotton children's fabric so popular?
Cotton has various properties that make the material so popular. First of all, the deposit is very mature due to global cultivation and mechanical processing. This leads to economic advantages of this natural fiber over alternative materials.
Cotton also has excellent material properties that have made this fiber the most popular fiber in the world. Cotton is very easy to care for and durable. The fiber is more tear-resistant when wet than when dry and is also very durable. Cotton is quite heat-resistant and naturally kind to the skin.

Process children's decorative fabrics
Before processing, it is possible to pre-wash the fabric or add an allowance for the remaining shrinkage of the material. For example, when sizing your children's curtains, you can add a length allowance over the hem in order to have a reserve length in the curtain after the first wash. If you want to pre-wash the fabric, we recommend finishing the open edges with a sewing machine. For children's curtains, we recommend our floor-to-ceiling fabrics with a height of at least 280 cm. For these fabrics, the height is fixed at 280 cm and you decide in 50 cm increments how wide the fabric should be. This makes it possible to create wider curtains and drapes without the hassle of putting them on.
A rotary cutter or sharp scissors is recommended for cutting. The desired pattern must be marked out and, if necessary, marked with tailor's chalk.
When sewing, it is important to set up the machine for the material used. We recommend a universal needle for light, thin fabrics; a jeans needle is suitable for heavy, solid cotton.
Wash children's fabrics
You can machine wash most of the children's fabrics in our range at at least 30 degrees. After washing, we recommend hanging the item up to dry. For some items, you can also put the fabric in the dryer to dry. Ironing is possible at a light to medium setting when dry. For more detailed information, please refer to the care information for the respective children's fabric.
