Corduroy
Soft Cord Fabric for Modern Makers
Our corduroy fabrics are chosen for sewists who want warmth, texture, and comfort in their handmade garments. Corduroy, often referred to as cord fabric, is known for its soft ridged surface and cosy feel, making it a popular choice for cooler weather sewing. It works well for trousers, skirts, dresses, jackets, and relaxed wardrobe pieces that benefit from structure with comfort.
At MaaiDesign Fabrics, we select corduroy with wearability and ease of sewing in mind. Clear product descriptions and helpful details support confident online shopping, especially when choosing textured fabrics. All fabrics are sold in 25cm increments and cut continuously, making it simple to order the right amount. While colours may vary slightly by screen, we aim to show each fabric as accurately as possible. If you are unsure whether corduroy suits your project, no worries. Just ask and we will help.
Cord fabric is a great option for slow fashion sewing, offering durability while remaining comfortable to wear. It is suitable for everyday garments and works well with simple patterns that allow the texture to shine. Many sewists enjoy corduroy for its balance of softness and structure.
Most orders are packed and dispatched within 1 to 2 business days, with tracking included. Our Happiness Guarantee and 30 day returns provide added reassurance, so you can shop with confidence and focus on enjoying your next sewing project.
