Designer fabrics 


 

Winter Ready by Thorsten Berger

Hibernation? No way – with the new Thorsten Berger fabrics you are ready for winter – Winter Ready! Three beastly cool guys come on 80 cm high panels for young and old!

Nothing can upset the beaver so easily. If a dam should break, he’s on the spot and everything is quickly back in order. „Dam it!“ is his motto, which is printed on the cool panel in grey-brown. The stylised beaver dams in the background stretch across the entire width of the fabric – only at second glance do you realise that they are made up of the W for WINTER Ready. The cool vintage paint structure creates a great, raw look.

Iggy the hedgehog is a gamer and has once again spent the whole night gaming. Judging by the rings under his eyes, even the strong coffee doesn’t seem to be working any more – now it’s time for an extensive hibernation. Will he be able to detach himself from his controller? The „Ready for winter sleep“ panel with the hedgehog is in a dark old mint emerald tone with an interesting brushstroke structure. The black stripe and the narrow light stripe extend across the entire width of the fabric.

 

  

Although the badger does not hibernate, it does hibernate in winter and it retreats into its burrow for days at a time. Its cosy winter fur is kept entirely in the „Black & White“ style. The badger with the striking lettering comes on the cool brush background in old mint emerald.

 

 

Matching the panels, but also super cool on their own, are the four all-over French Terrys – two designs each with black and the trendy taupe/grey or the grey with an old mint emerald touch.

 

 

The interesting, pixelated design with black textures always looks different and totally individual depending on the pattern and sewn sizes! No matter how you turn it, the criss-cross colourways are guaranteed to create a cool casual look in the coming autumn-winter season.

 

 

The second all-over design is a little more graphic and forms rhombic graphic patterns by stringing together „W „s – for „WinterReady“. Or is it an abstract beaver dam after all? Ideal for combining with the panels, for backs, hoods or sleeves, but also super cool on its own!

 

  

So versatile: whether for children or adults, for men and women, absolutely unisex! With the new French Terry you too will be „Winter Ready!“

Thanks to the test sewing team: fa-NAHT-isch, Glüxkeks, OmaLie Jennifer Göhre, Nähhimmel and Le.Ni.Ki

 

French Terry made of 95 % cotton, 5 % elastane, 155 cm, approx. 295 g/m², certified according to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. Delivery date: September 2023. Can be ordered on site at the h+h cologne from 31.3. and in the Swafing online shop from 3 April – the pre-order ends on 18.6.!


 

Los Marineros by bienvenido colorido

Nelli Simböck dedicates her latest jersey to seafarers – „Los Marineros“. The Spanish-based designer was inspired to create the maritime jerseys during a trip to the sea. A sunny day by the sea, watching the fishing boats and seagulls – can you also smell the fresh sea breeze? The maritime jerseys are available in two designs: The little fishes form a huge shoal – the funny jumpers, scarves and caps of the sardines loosen up the design, make you smile and are great to combine with striped jersey Bella. The fish design is available in classic navy blue and a great light yellow/ecru.

Martim, great to combine and ideal for adults and children. Even the dog gets a scarf for the next beach trip in partner look with his owner!

 

 

Have you ever written a message in a bottle? Or built a ship in a bottle? With the great bottle boat jersey you can create lots of nautical sewing ideas for young and old or even very cute in a partner look with dad! Jersey in orange-red/rust and classic dark blue with blue-green bottles and boats.

Elevate by lycklig design

Designer Berit Winter by Lycklig Design presents her new fabric series Elevate in her usual colourful way. The mix of simple design and bright colour gradients is an all-rounder for the whole family – for all ages and absolutely unisex and also suitable for every season.

Elevate is not a panel: printed as a continuous border on both sides, Elevate is an exciting design of overlapping arrows that rise up to the centre of the fabric in a random pattern. In a figurative sense, the characteristic arrows point the way upwards and clarify what the name already says. Translated from English, elevate means to rise/rise. So it encourages you to be your best self, always thinking positively. To live the best life possible and to enjoy it to the fullest, full of joy and happiness. To spend time with people you care about and do things you love. Life is precious and only exists this once.

 

All pattern information for the trade fair design examples can be found in the image database!

 

Elevate comes on versatile jersey and is particularly suitable for shirts, longsleeves, dresses, leggings and much more. The arrows shine in three different colour gradients on a black background. Colourfully bright in rainbow, which fades into black, casually cool in lime/petrol and stylishly elegant in blue/brown. Somewhat more subdued, very cool and also very suitable for men! Elevate is boldly coloured on both edges and tapers off darker towards the centre.

 

   

 

The design with the large repeat offers a lot of variety and individuality. The arrows can run/be sewn from the bottom to the top, but can also run lengthwise – no problem at all with jersey to change the direction to your heart’s content when cutting. The result is a completely different look every time, depending on how you apply the pattern. Sporty, urban, just great – an incredibly cool fabric for the whole family!

 

 

The colourful rainbow design shows very nicely that Elevate always looks different depending on the direction and positioning of the darker areas – you can really play with the pattern!

 

 

Thanks to the sample sewing team: Leylissima, PhiataStich, Stofftraum, Vigaro, ZauberElla and Lycklig Design

Australien and Mini Flowers by Christiane Zielinski

 

Cotton Jersey Australien

Christiane Zielinski takes us to Australia! The smallest continent in the world lies at the other end of the earth and has an extraordinary animal and plant world, which served the designer as inspiration for this beautiful jersey collection in harmonious earth tones.

When you think of Australia, you immediately think of the kangaroo – symbol of the country and heraldic animal and represented in almost every part of the country. On Jersey Australia there is a jumping kangaroo and, of course, a kangaroo with its young in a pouch. In addition, there are trees, tufts of grass and the beaming sun!

 

All pattern information for the trade fair design examples can be found in the image database!

 

The koala can also be found on the Australia jerseys in two colours. He is sitting or climbing in the eucalyptus tree or taking a nap. There – a koala mama with her baby! Pssst, a koala! The cute koala with butterflies and leaves is available in natural white and light green. The jersey with the animal tracks in the sand matches: On this fabric you can discover tracks of different animals like koala, kangaroo and the emu. The tracks jersey is available in two colourways: light with dark tracks and light brown with dark brown tracks. Which track belongs to which animal? Can you guess?

 

 

Very trendy are simple designs in delicate natural colours – the mini rainbow with the sun and the leaves in natural white and camel/beige are very trendy!

 

 

So cool for big and small, the large stylised rainbows with dotted circles create a trendy ethnic look. Light beige with natural white arches and dark circles and camel/terracotta colours with light arches and dark brown circles.

 

 

The trendy, earthy jerseys can also be beautifully combined with woolen whale Naomi or Merino – for example as lining for the popular overalls or whale coats. The designs are great for kids, not too big and very modern. The Australia jerseys can also be combined very well with our mottled basics Vanessa-melange and Heike-melange.

Mini Flowers cotton jersey

When the desert blossoms – and that’s what it does in Australia from July to November over an area of 2.5 million square kilometres – the desert is transformed into a sea of flowers and blossoms. An incomparable natural spectacle that Christiane Zielinski has captured in her new Jerseys. The small, playful watercolour flowers form a large carpet of flowers. The cotton jersey with the little stray flowers in earthy, powdery colours is available in two different colourways, each on a cream background. Rust with denim blue and soft pink and a lovely warm rose-rose-ochre for a romantic yet modern look – wonderful for children and adults!

 

All pattern information for the trade fair design examples can be found in the image database!

 

 

The flower jerseys are ideal for summer dresses, tops and shirts and summer outfits of all kinds. But: The Mini Flowers can also be combined very well with Woolwalk Naomi or Merino! Very nice as lining for children’s overalls, but also as jacket lining or accent in pockets and collars of coats for adults!

No chance for boring styles! Because with the new BLACK collection by Käselotti you immediately get the desire for stylish fashion, fluttering summer dresses and cool outfits. The BLACK collection consists of jersey BLACK Twig and viscose wovens BLACK Leaf and BLACK Blossom.

 


BLACK Twig

The cool jersey with the expressive design with branches running lengthwise is something very special: the timeless design stretches so beautifully with the arrangement of the branches and you can use it in so many different ways! The exciting design also makes simple cuts look very special.

BLACK Twig is as the name suggests, with black twigs. These run on jersey in the colours ochre, green, old rose and denim blue. So beautiful for young and old!

BLACK Leaf & BLACK Blossom

In addition to the cool jerseys, the BLACK collection also includes viscose wovens BLACK Leaf and BLACK Blossom – in our popular Amalia quality. The slightly heavier viscose has a fantastic, firm handle. At the same time, however, it is beautifully lightly draping and flowing! The beautiful, grippy material is not see-through, does not need to be lined and is therefore ideal for dresses, but also for blouses or blouse shirts.

BLACK Leaf shows a stylised leaf skeleton – the leaf skeleton, so to speak. The great abstract design with the elongated shapes is available in great colour combinations of green-pink and mustard-jean blue. So trendy and cool – our sample sewing team was very enthusiastic about the colours and the quality!

BLACK Blossom

The flowers with the white dots are available in old rose, mustard and green. The viscose fabric with the great drape is very suitable for maxi skirts, dresses, tops, blouses and more!

Retro Loveboat on Double Slub Muslin

New quality: Double Slub Musselin a double-layered muslin with a dreamlike slub structure that creates a wonderful linen look! The special thing about the new muslin fabric: Double Slub Musselin does not crinkle after washing, i.e. it does not have a crushed surface, but remains smooth, keeps its shape and hardly shrinks. A really nice, smooth muslin quality that is somewhat thicker, heavier and more densely woven than conventional muslin. It has a stronger feel, is not sheer and simply falls beautifully soft! Even with light and white designs you don’t have to worry about seeing through – the new quality is opaque. On the front side our new double slub muslin inspires with the slub structure / linen structure, the back side is smooth. The Double Slub Muslin is an absolute all-season quality and is ideal for blouses, shirts, tops, dresses, summery blazers, trousers & shorts, for shawls & accessories – absolutely versatile and can be used for children and adults alike. This quality is also available as plain double slub muslin Sorea.

Dreamlike designs – made for the cool double slub muslin! The „Retro Loveboat by Cherry Picking“ is available in two trendy, soft colours. Sea meets beach: the paper boats with the sweet heart detail sail on a background of smoky blue or sandy beige! The slub structure gives the design a wonderful depth. The light and airy slub fabric is so beautiful for plate skirts, dresses, blouses, shirts, shorts and summer trousers for big and small!

DIY-PANELS


 

 

Pillow Party by Jolijou

The success story continues: we will also be celebrating an exuberant Pillow Party at the h+h cologne in 2023! The gorgeous panels are so well received by you and also by your customers that we are happy to listen to requests for new designs and colours!

The attractive pillow panels are really something special: sewing the most beautiful pillows with only one metre of fabric in no time at all is easy with the Pillow Party by Jolijou – without any pattern at all. Whether round pillows, hexagon pillows, square or rectangular pillows and even bolsters – there are no limits to your imagination! The pattern repeat contains three mandalas as cushion fronts, which are cut out in different shapes. Combine several mandalas to make cushions with patterns on both sides or choose a matching plain fabric for the back from the rich Swafing Basics range to go with the Pillow Party front. Of course, you can also make yoga cushions, bags or shoppers, table runners, place mats and practical little bags from this original fabric!

 

All pattern information for the trade fair design examples can be found in the image database!

 

The four stripes that go across the entire width of the fabric can be used as side stripes or as edging for cushions, but also as bag straps etc.

 

 

 

Andrea Müller, better known as Jolijou, has created brand new Pillow Party designs for you: The ornamental-folkloristic design with the colourful flower mandalas is available in the colour 659-299 „Colourful/Black“. The second new design captivates with the strong contrasts of the two-coloured mandalas in the centre and the somewhat more reduced colours. Here you have the choice between colour 662-263 „Multicoloured/Mint“ and 661-937 „Multicoloured-Bordeaux“. The three new Pillow Party panels fit wonderfully into a modern living landscape!

Then we have just the right animal bag for you! The very special set for children is now available with hedgehog, ladybird, dog and bee!

You also get great appliqués with which you can decorate this or other models with hedgehogs, ladybirds, dogs and bees! To make sure nothing gets lost, the animal pouches and the chest pouches have the practical labelling field under the flap!

 

 

So cute for children – for the nursery, as a gym bag or for leisure time. The animal pouches are practical to wear as a backpack and offer enough space for a bottle and lunch box! Of course, they are also suitable as a bag for a change of clothes or for games and books when out and about. The pencil case is ideal for pens, small toys for on the go or as a case for cream, small wet wipes & tissues etc. There is also a chest pouch and the pocket animal, which is always there as a companion and little comforter!

 

 

Pssst, we know from well-informed sources that teens and adults have also been spotted with the animal pouches – the funny companions are sure to put a smile on your face too! Only the dog of Frau Fruehlings Firlefanz still looks a little sceptical – whether there are treats in the pencil case?

 

 

There is a detailed tutorial for the animal bag panel, so that everyone can sew this great bag set very easily! You can sew four projects from one panel – everything fits together so well – it’s so much fun to discover all the lovely details.

Dreamy Wool & Knit Fabrics


 

Pure virgin wool made from 100% merino wool – a wonderful and very high-quality material!

Merino wool is breathable and warming and retains heat particularly well. At higher temperatures it cools through evaporative cooling, at lower temperatures it even warms when slightly damp without feeling clammy. Merino wool is able to regulate body temperature by transporting moisture to the outside. It is said that significantly fewer odours form and merino wool has self-cleaning properties. It is ideal to let the clothes air out overnight after wearing them, for example!

At h+h cologne Swafing will be offering two beautiful merino qualities, both with STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certification!

 

 

Merino-Walk / Boiled Wool Merino

Boiled Merino-Wool or Merino-Walk – our article Merino is a must-have for young and old! This article was so popular last year that we are offering it again by popular demand!

Article Merino is – as the name suggests – made of 100% virgin wool (merino wool). Merino fibres are only half as thick as conventional virgin wool and are much softer and finer and, above all, even more comfortable to wear in direct contact with the skin, as in hats or loops, and not at all scratchy! This lighter boiled wool is not as thick as conventional wool and is ideal if you are looking for a somewhat lighter material for tops, wool overalls, jackets and coats, hats, scarves, cuffs and more! This natural material retains body heat, is breathable and temperature balancing and keeps you and your loved ones wonderfully warm. So great to work with: You can simply cut merino and don’t necessarily have to neaten or line models made of it – cool open edges that don’t fray and with just a few seams you have a new favourite piece!

 

All pattern information for the trade fair design examples can be found in the image database!

 

Merino comes in great melange and plain colours – coordinated with the colours of item Naomi or Naomi-melange, Merino is a great addition if you are looking for a slightly lighter material for tops, whale overalls, jackets, hats, scarves and more! Light and loose, but still keeps you nice and warm. We’ve expanded the colour palette to 21 colours: in addition to last year’s popular colours, there are three new melange colours Old Pink 1435, Mint 1236 and Denim Blue 1744!

 

 

Boiled wool made of 100 % virgin wool (merino wool), 144 cm wide, approx. 260 g/m², certified according to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. Delivery date: July/August 2023. Available to order on site at h+h cologne from 31.3 and in the Swafing online shop from 3 April, while stocks last.

 


 

 

Merino-Strick

Our new Merino knit is wonderfully soft, a very fine, soft Merino knit fabric. The very high-quality fabric made of 100% virgin wool (merino wool) does not scratch and can therefore be worn very well directly on the skin. Merino knitwear falls wonderfully soft and has valuable properties:

Merino is breathable and warming and retains heat particularly well. In warmer temperatures it cools through evaporative cooling, in colder temperatures it even warms when slightly damp without feeling clammy. Merino wool is able to regulate body temperature by wicking moisture to the outside. It is said that significantly fewer odours form and merino wool has self-cleaning properties. It is ideal to let the clothes air out overnight after wearing them, for example!

Our new merino knit is ideal for hiking, mountain sports, ski clothing/underwear, any outdoor sport because of its good properties. Not only mountain bikers swear by narrow, high tube scarves / functional scarves that can be worn as a scarf, cap, headband, neck guard and more, and can also be pulled in front of the face so that the air you breathe is warmed up and you don’t get so chilled! The Balaclavas / ski mask caps, which can be easily sewn from merino knit, also work with this principle.

 

 

Merino knitwear is not only ideal for sports and outdoor use, but also for all kinds of conventional clothing: dresses, knitted tops, children’s clothing and bodysuits, scarves, hats and shawls – the possibilities are endless!

Now in seven colours: With natural white and dark grey, there are two mottled versions, plus the five solid colours of old rose, emerald, dark blue, denim blue and black!

 

Information: The manufacturer states that this material is „not washable“ and we have to adhere to this information or state it as such in our shop. BUT we ourselves have done wash tests at 30 degrees wool wash and dried it lying down and it looked wonderful. Merino wool is naturally antibacterial and less likely to take on odours than other fabrics. Often the garment can simply be aired out and is pleasantly fresh again the next day.

 

Knitted fabric made of 100 % virgin wool (merino wool), 140 cm wide, approx. 250 g/m², certified according to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. Delivery date: June 2023. Available to order on site at h+h cologne from 31.3 and in the Swafing online shop from 3 April, while stocks last.

 


 

Viskose knit Kai

Viscose knit Kai is an absolute classic that you and your customers can’t get enough of! We are therefore very happy to fulfil your wish for a new edition at the h+h cologne. The beautiful soft viscose knitted fabric has a silky touch, a nice sheen and therefore looks super noble. Due to the high viscose content, Kai is extremely soft and very comfortable to wear and is equally appealing to ladies, men, kids and teens! The mottled knit fabric is wonderfully suitable for beautiful tops, jumpers, dresses, cardigans and of course ponchos and shawls.

Luise is available with flowers and leaves in red-orange-green and with blossoms in royal blue and orange on the beautiful, natural-colored ground, which fits wonderfully to the theme „linen“ and where the structure comes wonderfully to the fore.

 

 

There is also a great leo print in two current colors. The leo pattern comes out so well on the varied background in different shades! Apricot – old pink or terracotta – so trendy and beautiful!

Stretch-Satin and viscose woven


  
 

 

Cotton Stretch Satin Martha

Our popular stretch satin is made of cotton with 3% elastane. This makes it slightly elastic and therefore ideal for garments! The quality gives nicely, is not too tight and you have enough room for skirts, pants and shorts, blazers and blousons, dresses and suits, with more cuts even for casual sweater-style tops. Due to the stretch content Martha makes every movement with you!

For summer 2023 we have a beautiful stretch satin collection for you! The six fabrics are beautifully coordinated: Blossoms and buttons on a very light shade of pink and on white, the matching leaves on a soft shade of green and on white, and wonderfully fresh vertical stripes in pink and green with white. Everything goes so well together and looks so classy and summer fresh! As the noble pantsuit shows – with a cozy turtleneck or as a summery version with the great vest – Martha can be worn all year round!

Viscose woven fabric Amalia

One of our favorite viscose qualities is viscose woven fabric Amalia and we are pleased to be able to show a new design on this very popular, somewhat heavier fabric at h+h cologne. The printed viscose has a great, firm handle. At the same time, however, it is beautifully lightly draping and flowing. Lighter viscose can be a bit slippery when sewing – this is completely different with Amalia. Amalia is so easy to sew that both our sample sewing team and our seamstress were thrilled.

The beautiful design with the lively pattern is available in royal blue with lilac and nature, in dark red with rust and nature and in petrol with old mint and nature.

So versatile: the beautiful, grippy material is not see-through and does not need to be lined, making it ideal for dresses, blouse shirts, shawls and more!

Soft and cuddly flannel


 

 

 

Fashionable flannel fabrics Maverick & Hudson

A dream of a fabric! Maverick and Hudson are brushed flannel fabrics, wonderfully soft to the touch and with dreamlike wearing comfort. The yarn-dyed material made of pure cotton is ideal for shirts and blouses, dresses and skirts and of course also for accessories, scarves, pajamas and cozy loungewear – absolutely unisex and suitable for young and old! The fashionable check fabrics and melange flannel are absolutely trendy and inspire fashionistas and nature boys alike. Whether cool lumberjack shirt, classic shirt blouse or urban chic – flannel is so versatile and you decide by pattern choice and styling, how your new favorite part of flannel looks.

This quality is very lightly brushed and not too thick, which means you can also work very finely with it – pockets, a fine collar, gathers or ruffle details succeed wonderfully.

 

 

Hudson is a mottled flannel with an interesting look. There are five versatile shades: mustard, mud, denim blue, petrol and bordeaux. The mottling with dark yarn gives Hudson a slight denim look. Cotton flannel Hudson is available in dark red, denim blue, mustard, petrol and taupe / mud.

The pure cotton flannel is available in seven check designs, including the popular red and black lumberjack check, small-checked pepita check in denim blue and red, fashionable check designs in light gray with black and light blue/jean blue, and the great, approx. 4 cm checks in harmonious shades of blue or red.
