One of the reasons I sew is to provide my daughter with clothes that are practical, gender neutral and made of natural fibres. We've been limited by the range of colours available in cotton fleece this year. I came across this hemp/cotton fleece and hemp/cotton jersey on a site dedicated to making nappies, but I don's see any reason why it wouldn't make clothes also.

Hemp/cotton jersey

Does anyone here have any experience with hemp/cotton fleece or jersey? For example, how well does it take dye? Is it as easy to sew as cotton fleece? Does the jersey sew up like merino knit?

Anyway, any experiences you have to share would be most welcome. And if anyone else here makes clothing for their (or other people's) children, I'd love to hear from you about what you make and what you've found.
