Cork is the bark of the cork-oak tree which grows mainly in Mediterranean regions, such as Portugal. The bark is extracted and the tree renews itself, making cork a natural, recyclable and environmentally friendly product.
This natural cork fabric, or cork leather as it's often called, is perfect for making bags & wallets. It's backed with a thin layer of cotton/poly blend fabric similar to a faux leather. It's thin enough to easily sew on any domestic machine. It's pliable, bendable and easy to cut too! Just like with leather and vinyl recommend clipping instead of pinning. I also interface my cork leather for some projects (when I want extra firmness) using Decor Bond #809, my preferred choice in interfacing. You can cut it, iron it front & back and sew it like any other fabric. Slight variations in length can occur since cork is a natural product. Cork has selvedge edges just like cotton fabric. It's very durable, wears extremely well, and doesn't fray. Slight surface cracks are normal especially on hard folds and in areas like corners, curves & handles.
I use my regular foot, thread and settings with no issues on my domestic Janome machine.
All cork sold through Sew Many Creations is imported from Portugal. It is approx. 1mm in thickness.
