Organic Cotton Poplin – Minnie Limited Edition | Atelier 27

The Minnie print by Atelier 27 is a Limited Edition organic cotton poplin made from 100% organic cotton, certified to OEKO-TEX Standard 100. Designed in France and printed in Portugal, the Minnie print features small black hearts scattered across a white background. The poplin weave gives it a smooth surface and a structured drape with light body, allowing it to hold shape cleanly while remaining comfortable to wear. This print is produced in a single small run and will not be reprinted once sold out.

The hand is soft with a smooth, crisp surface. It holds its shape without stiffness, providing stability for precise sewing and clean finishes in both simple and more structured garments. The tight plain weave contributes to durability in wear and ease of handling during construction.

Sold by the half yard.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I sew with this fabric?

Blouses, shirts, dresses, children's clothing, and pyjamas — the small heart print is playful without being loud.

How much fabric do I need for a dress or blouse?

Fabric is sold by the half yard, cut in one continuous piece. A fitted top typically takes 2-3 half-yard units, a blouse or shirt 3-4, and a midi dress 5-6 — order 4 units for 2 continuous yards.

Will it shrink?

Slightly — like all cotton, expect minor shrinkage (around 2-3%) on the first wash. Pre-wash before cutting.

Is it see-through?

It is semi-opaque — fine unlined for blouses, dresses, and children's clothing, though for fitted white garments a quick hold-to-the-light check or a slip is worth it.

What needle and thread should I use?

A fine universal or microtex needle (70/10) with all-purpose polyester thread and a short 2-2.2 mm stitch length.

Is it really limited edition?

Yes — Atelier 27 prints each design in a single small run in France and never reprints it. When our bolt sells out, this print is gone for good. We stock it here in the US, so there is no import shipping or customs from France.
