Postcard Garden Cotton — Orange | Empee Studio

Nostalgic, charming, and bursting with botanical warmth — this gorgeous 100% cotton is like a love letter to summer days gone by. Small scattered postcard motifs sit alongside delicate botanicals and the occasional flutter of butterflies across a vibrant orange base, creating a print that's busy in the best possible way — layered, joyful, and full of little details to discover. The kind of fabric you keep finding something new in every time you look.

The vintage-inspired illustrated style gives it a warmth and character that feels genuinely timeless — not trend-driven, but the sort of print that looks just as beautiful made up into a child's dress as it does a relaxed adult blouse. Cheerful without being childish, nostalgic without being fussy.

100% cotton from the Empee Studio range, it's crisp, breathable, and an absolute pleasure to sew with — cutting cleanly, pressing crisply, and rewarding careful making at every step. At 150cm wide every metre is generous, giving you plenty of room for full skirts, relaxed shapes, and thoughtful pattern placement that lets the print really shine.

A fabric that doesn't just look beautiful — it tells a story. Perfect for slow fashion makers who choose their fabrics with intention and wear their makes with pride.

✂️ Fabric Details

Care: As a 100% cotton woven we recommend machine wash 30°, cool iron, and always pre-wash before cutting to allow for any shrinkage.

Ideal for: Summer dresses, blouses, skirts, children's dresses and pinafores, casual shirts, craft projects, and any make that deserves a print with personality, warmth, and a little vintage soul.
