Product Description
Gingham Yellow from the Little Ones by Makower UK
A sunny gingham with a soft, nostalgic feel
Gingham Yellow is a light, cheerful check fabric from the Little Ones collection by Makower UK, featuring a finely balanced gingham pattern in warm yellow and soft white. The colour is gentle rather than bold, giving this fabric a welcoming, optimistic feel that works beautifully in both traditional and contemporary sewing projects. Its small-scale check adds subtle structure and rhythm, making it an ideal companion print within a mixed fabric palette.
Printed on 100% cotton with a smooth, soft handle and a weight of 145gsm, Gingham Yellow is particularly well suited to patchwork and quilting. The even, regular pattern makes it a reliable choice for piecing, sashing, borders, and bindings, where clean lines help bring a quilt design together. It is especially effective in baby quilts, cot quilts, and children’s patchwork projects, where the warm yellow tone adds light and friendliness without overwhelming other prints.
This yellow gingham cotton also works wonderfully for home décor sewing and accessories. Consider it for cushion covers, nursery décor, bunting, fabric baskets, or lightweight table linens, where a classic check brings a sense of comfort and familiarity. For bag making and accessories, it is well suited to linings, outer panels, zip pouches, drawstring bags, and everyday totes. Its soft colouring makes it versatile for gifts and practical projects alike.
As part of the Little Ones collection, Gingham Yellow pairs effortlessly with the illustrated animal prints, woodland motifs, and softer blenders found throughout the range. Combine it with character fabrics to create balance in quilt layouts, or use it alongside other ginghams for a coordinated, classic look. Whether used as a gentle background or a unifying element across a project, this yellow gingham quilting cotton offers warmth, versatility, and timeless appeal.
