New fabrics for April 2026 - Laurens round up

Join me for the April 2026 new fabric round-up at Guthrie & Ghani, featuring a really exciting mix of new arrivals for spring and summer sewing, including the launch of our brand new Flur fabrics - yay! ✨

This month also includes some highly requested previous kit fabrics now available by the metre, including the stripes from the Rose Raglan Shirt and the mini gingham and pink vintage cotton from the Ruby Vest.

You’ll also find a beautiful selection of embroidered fabrics, including the new Fabric Godmother embroidered palm designs with matching linings, alongside double gauze, bold checks and stripes, textured fabrics, unique denims, and comfortable knitted and jersey fabrics perfect for everyday wear.

I’ve linked everything that’s new into the shop this month, and you can also watch the video where I show each fabric up close to help you choose just the right one for your next project.

What I'm wearing

In this video I'm wearing my Lèana Blouse in the Flùr Meadow print. This version has the gathers and the front and back yoke with the shirring elastic cuff. I made the longer length so that it's nice and easy to tuck in to my Closet Core Frank Jeans, made using our pink denim but with the wrong side facing out for a lighter shade of pink.

Bold checks and stripes

The bright colours of these bold checks are gorgeous. The slightly heavier weight cotton gives them a nice crips handle thats best suited for when you want garment to really hold their shape.

The classic stripes are on a 100% viscose base, giving them lots of drape and swish - perfect for that wide leg summer set!
