More blouse weight. And your knickers would probably show 🤭 **Q: Would this be suitable for neck gaitors/snoods?** A: Basically No..... This is cotton fabric as used for bed sheets Ideal for face masks; fitted or pleated, but for snoods etc you would need a jersey type fabric that stretches . **Q: Would this fabric be ok for curtains making?** A: It is not the thickest of fabric so unless you are going to line the curtains they would be very light and not really black out the light. **Q: Would this be suitable to do dressmaking?** A: Yes, it’s very suitable in my opinion, for dressmaking. Hot wash fabric before cutting; it does shrink a bit; & colour bleeds a little. I made a blouse with gathered shoulder peplum sleeves, black calico fabric, better quality than I expected, gathers beautifully. Didn’t have the strange weave patterns that some plain calico has - it’s smooth & flat . Does fade a little, but excellent value for money. I wouldn’t mix it with a light coloured fabric within the same garment, because of dye seepage. ## Frequently Bought Together - Plain Black 100% Cotton Fabric Woven Calico 225GSM 150cm 60 Inch Wide (5 Meter) – Great for Sewing, Curtain Linings, Quilting & Totes – Easy Fabric by The Metre by Discount Fabrics - 1m Plain White Calico Fabric – 100% Cotton, Optic White Calico 225GSM 60” Inch 150cm Wide – for Sewing, Quilting, Curtain Linings, Pillowcases & Totes – Easy Fabric by The Metre by Discount Fabrics - 50m Plain Natural Calico Fabric – Unbleached 100% Cotton 225GSM 60” Inch 150cm Wide – Great for Sewing, Quilting, Curtain Linings, Pillowcases & Totes – Easy Fabric by The Metre by Discount Fabrics --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/457726651-5m-plain-black-calico-fabric-black-dyed-100-cotton-material](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/457726651-5m-plain-black-calico-fabric-black-dyed-100-cotton-material) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-09-12*
