Navy Cotton Satin Ribbon Striped
$29.00
There is a special machine that makes this, it's a mystery, the base is a nice medium weight crisp cotton with good body for many types of garments, shirts, dresses, skirts, then there are little rayon ribbons with one edge woven into the fabric so it looks kind of like a satin tuck, you cannot tell on the opposite side. It is understated and for all textile lovers. Great for day to night, spring summer parties.

Medium Indigo 14oz Raw Denim
$19.50
14 oz sturdy raw denim but not the rawest, medium light blue denim. Suitable for jeans, jackets, coats, accessories. Slightly softer than a typical raw denim but still raw. Seam will fade after wearing if you are looking for that "look"just wear this in on its own and then wash or dry clean.
Care guidance: I recommend just wearing this in, do not pre wash before sewing. If you must remove some starch lay flat and soak for at least an hour, hang straight to drip dry, press and reshape when damp repeat if you like. Sanforized.

Fabric care guidance: This shirting is starched for easier manufacturing. I soaked in tepid water to release starch for a day, hang dry, and there was to shrinkage. To soak, it is best practice to lay fabric flat like in a tub and hang dry straight from clips. To request a swatch that includes before and after soaking choose from drop down.

Medium Dark Grey Wool Knit Binder
$3.60
I have 2 widths. The 6mm is flat and suitable for accents as a seam cover, neck/shoulder seams, pockets, take it everywhere. Also there is a binder 10mm on each side. Please note both stretch cross not with the length. This makes it easy to wrap an edge or for covering a seam but does not stretch lengthwise.There is a crease for folding. It will do curve depending on how severe but I recommend dampening in the curve and steaming to shrink and mold first. Also consider using on another fiber for contrast.
