A richly detailed 100% cotton Half Panama canvas featuring a botanical floral print in deep green over a warm ochre ground. The design combines stylized flowers, leaves, stems and foliage to create an expressive botanical pattern with a beautiful decorative character.

Woven in a Half Panama construction, this 220 gsm cotton canvas has a distinctive textured surface that gives the printed design depth while maintaining a natural cotton feel. The medium weight provides more body and structure than a standard quilting or apparel cotton without becoming excessively heavy or rigid.

Its combination of structure, durability and decorative appeal makes it particularly versatile for home décor, accessories and structured sewing projects. The botanical design works beautifully on larger pieces where the full pattern can be showcased, from cushions and curtains to tote bags and other statement accessories.

Half Panama is characterized by its basket-style woven construction, creating a subtly textured surface and substantial hand. It is an excellent choice when you want the natural look and breathability of cotton with additional body and durability.

Certified OEKO-TEX® Class I and REACH compliant, this fabric is a beautiful option for projects where both visual impact and practical performance matter.

Recommended Uses:

• Cushion and pillow covers
• Curtains and decorative window treatments
• Table runners and placemats
• Tote bags and market bags
• Structured handbags and accessories

Working With Half Panama Canvas:

• Use a universal or jeans needle appropriate for medium-weight woven fabrics
• A slightly longer stitch length can work well with the substantial weave
• Finish raw edges with a serger, zigzag stitch or binding to help prevent fraying
• For bags and accessories requiring additional structure, interfacing may be added depending on the project
• Consider the placement and direction of the botanical print when cutting larger pattern pieces

Care:

• Pre-wash before cutting, as shrinkage of up to 6% may occur
• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle
• Wash with similar colours
• Do not bleach
• Hang to dry or tumble dry low
• Iron at medium heat, preferably on the reverse side
