Expressive, colourful and exceptionally detailed, this multicolour paisley embroidered cotton fabric is a beautiful example of embroidery becoming the defining feature of a textile. Intricate paisley motifs, decorative swirls and delicate circular details are brought to life through raised, looped stitching in shades of pastel pink, aqua blue, yellow, coral and deeper blue.
Against a richly textured white cotton background, the colourful embroidery creates a striking contrast between soft, delicate colour and intricate threadwork. The paisley shapes are decorated with overlapping outlines, open spaces between the stitches and expressive linear details, giving the fabric an almost hand-crafted, crochet-inspired appearance.
Made from 100% cotton, this distinctive fabric weighs 225 GSM, including the embroidery, and offers a generous 140 cm usable embroidered width. Its substantial feel, dimensional surface and colourful design make it an exceptional choice for creative sewing projects where the fabric itself takes centre stage.
Part of our Luxury Manufacturer Deadstock selection, this fabric is available in limited quantities. Once sold out, restocking cannot be guaranteed.
An Extraordinary Paisley Embroidery
What makes this cotton fabric so special is its unusual embroidery technique. Rather than relying on densely filled shapes, the design uses colourful loops and elongated stitches to build intricate paisley motifs.
Each paisley contains a beautiful arrangement of curved outlines, delicate thread bridges and decorative details. Smaller circular and spiral motifs appear between the larger designs, creating an intricate all-over pattern with movement and personality.
The embroidery combines shades of soft pink, aqua, lemon yellow, blue and coral. Some stitches overlap, while others follow their own paths, giving the design a lively, almost illustrated appearance.
The result is a fabric that feels artistic and contemporary while drawing inspiration from traditional ornamental textile designs.
Beautiful Texture and Dimensional Detail
The textured white cotton base adds another layer of interest to this exceptional fabric. Its subtly irregular surface contrasts with the raised embroidered threads, making the colourful paisley shapes stand out beautifully.
The embroidery is particularly interesting up close, where individual loops and lines become visible. From a distance, these details come together to form an elaborate, colourful botanical-inspired design.
At 225 GSM, the finished fabric has a substantial weight that includes the embroidered threads. This makes it especially appealing for garments that benefit from texture, presence and decorative detailing.

Why We Love This Fabric
There is something wonderfully unexpected about this embroidered cotton. The colourful paisley motifs look almost as though they were drawn by hand using loops of thread rather than traditional embroidery stitches.
We especially love how the raised embroidery creates depth and movement across the textured white surface. The decorative details make this fabric visually interesting from every angle.
Its playful colours and intricate ornamental design are beautifully balanced, making it a lovely choice for sewists who appreciate unusual textiles and want to create garments that feel truly individual.
A simple sewing pattern is all you need to let this extraordinary embroidery become the highlight of your finished project.
Sewing Recommendations
- Use the 140 cm usable embroidered width when calculating fabric requirements.
- Choose simple garment silhouettes to highlight the detailed paisley embroidery.
- Consider motif placement when cutting pattern pieces.
- Use a needle appropriate for woven cotton, and test stitches on a scrap before sewing.
- Handle the raised loops carefully to avoid snagging during cutting and sewing.
- Reduce unnecessary bulk in seam allowances where embroidery is particularly dense.
- Use a pressing cloth and press carefully from the reverse, preferably over a soft towel to protect the dimensional stitching.
- Consider a lightweight lining if additional opacity or comfort is required.
Care Recommendations
Because of the intricate raised embroidery, we recommend gentle handling to help preserve the appearance of the decorative stitching.
- Washing: Test a small sample in cold water using a gentle washing method before laundering the full fabric.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
- Bleach: Avoid bleach.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible.
- Ironing: Press carefully from the reverse using a pressing cloth and an appropriate low temperature.
- Special Care: Avoid excessive rubbing or snagging of the decorative embroidered loops.
We recommend pre-washing a sample using the same method you intend to use for your finished garment. Test the embroidery for colourfastness and shrinkage before laundering. These recommendations are not manufacturer-confirmed care instructions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this fabric made from 100% cotton?
Yes. This fabric is specified as 100% cotton and features colourful raised embroidery over a textured white cotton background.
Is the paisley design embroidered or printed?
The design is embroidered, not printed. Colourful threads form the paisley motifs, decorative loops and swirling details.
What makes this embroidery unusual?
Unlike conventional filled embroidery, this design uses looped outlines and open spaces between stitches to create intricate paisley shapes with an almost crochet-inspired appearance.
Is this true cutwork or eyelet embroidery?
The design has an openwork-inspired appearance, but the photographs show decorative threads stitched over a cotton base. It should not be confused with traditional eyelet fabric containing deliberately cut openings.
Is 225 GSM considered heavyweight for embroidered cotton?
At 225 GSM, including the embroidery, this fabric is more substantial than lightweight cotton voile or lawn. The embroidered areas may feel heavier and more textured than the background fabric.
Can I use this fabric for dresses and blouses?
Yes! It is a beautiful option for relaxed blouses, decorative dresses, skirts and matching sets. Simpler garment patterns will allow the colourful embroidery to stand out.
Will this fabric require a lining?
Depending on your garment and preferred coverage, a lightweight lining may be useful. We recommend checking the fabric against the light before choosing your garment construction.
What width should I use when planning my sewing project?
The total fabric width is 147 cm (58"), with 140 cm (55") of usable embroidered width. Use the embroidered width for accurate cutting layouts.
Will this fabric be restocked?
This fabric belongs to our limited luxury manufacturer deadstock selection. Quantities are limited, and restocking cannot be guaranteed once sold out.
