Mid Weight Mesh Apparel Fabric Collection - Polka Dots Blue/Yellow

Like drops of sunshine dancing across a tropical sky, this playful print brings instant joy and movement to any handmade wardrobe. Polka Dots Blue/Yellow scatters rounded golden spots in assorted sizes over a lively turquoise-blue background, giving the design a spontaneous, hand-painted character. The changing scale keeps the pattern visually animated without making it difficult to style or coordinate. Its mid weight mesh construction lends breathable texture and a softly fluid drape, making it an inspired choice for layered tops, colorful dresses, relaxed skirts, and statement sleeves. Pair it with a coordinating lining for fuller coverage, or embrace the mesh effect to create breezy overlays and unexpected flashes of color. Bright, spirited, and wonderfully expressive, this fabric turns even a simple silhouette into something that feels imaginative and full of personality.

For best results, machine wash cold on a delicate cycle with mild detergent, tumble dry low and remove promptly; do not bleach. Pre-washing is recommended.

The Mid Weight Mesh Apparel collection brings breathable comfort, flexible stretch, and bold printed style to modern handmade wardrobes. Designed by The RBD Designers, the assortment blends playful energy with an easy-to-wear look that suits everything from casual layers to standout fashion pieces. Mid weight mesh is a breathable fabric with an open construction and more substance than lightweight mesh, creating a comfortable balance of airy openness, gentle drape, and useful structure. Made from 97% recycled polyester and 3% spandex, each print combines resilient performance with a touch of stretch so finished garments can move naturally with the wearer. The palette travels from navy, sky blue, cream, and soft gray to cocoa brown, rust, coral, and sunny gold, offering both cool and warm directions for coordinated sewing. Grids, paint splatters, florals, polka dots, and lively novelty motifs create a varied collection that feels artistic, sporty, and refreshingly unexpected.

Use these mid weight mesh fabrics to bring texture and breathable dimension to lined tops, dresses, skirts, sleeves, overlays, cover-ups, and active-inspired details. The fabric’s moderate body helps the printed motifs remain visually defined, while its mesh construction keeps layered designs from feeling overly heavy. A small amount of spandex adds welcome flexibility around areas that benefit from movement. At approximately 61" wide, every print provides generous working space for pattern layouts, flowing panels, and creative color blocking. Mix graphic neutrals with brighter colorways for an eclectic coordinated look, or let one distinctive print take center stage against a simple lining or complementary solid.
