mind the maker | heavy washed canvas | natural

Urban charm with a rough heart

Imagine an industrial loft meeting the sewing machine – that’s exactly how the Heavy Washed Canvas collection from mind the MAKER feels. Robust, honest, edgy – and as stylish as a freshly pressed flat white in Copenhagen. These fabrics have character and patina without needing years of wear. Ideal for anyone who likes to combine clean lines with a casual used look.

Heavy Washed Canvas – a fabric with attitude

If a fabric could say, "I've got this!", it would be this one. The Heavy Washed Canvas brings a solid weight of 475 g/m² to the needle along with a good dose of coolness. The three colors – Calm Grey, Umber, and Pickle – range from urban-elegant to earthy-warm and are as versatile as your favorite tool. The finely washed surface adds a subtle vintage note that gives every project that special "I'm not off the rack" feeling.

Thanks to its firm feel, this fabric is perfect for projects that need structure – whether in the form of a jacket with a statement collar, a bag with edges and corners, or sturdy pants for DIY adventures.

Umber – The earthy classic

Umber reminds of freshly brewed mocha, sun-dried bricks, or a botanist's favorite sweater. This rich, warm brown adds depth to any project and pairs wonderfully with natural tones, rust, ochre, or muted blue. Ideal for sturdy pants, utility skirts, or a bag that accompanies you all year round – Umber is simply always a good choice.
