Organic Cotton Plus sent me this lovely organic cotton pique fabric in the pesto colorway to play with. I used it to make myself a dress and a polo shirt for Tim. Twinsies! More on his polo shirt soon.

I haven't had much experience with pique, but I really enjoyed working with it! It's pretty stable, but it's got just enough stretch. I also found it to have great recovery considering it's 100% cotton with no lycra! It doesn't curl too much on the edges and has a cool texture on the exterior. I always think of pique for polo shirts, but it paired perfectly with the Pembroke pattern.

Bonus: this organic, GOTS-certified cotton pique is 80 inches wide, which means you get a big bang for your buck. I had 4 yards to play with, and I got a midi-dress, Tim's polo, and still have enough for at least another top!
