Description
Satin shines on the face and stays matt on the reverse. That sheen comes from the weave rather than a coating. At 115 g/m² and 145 cm wide the fabric suits the usual paper patterns. It is made from 100 % cotton.
With Purple you choose a colour you do not see on every second piece. Press at moderate heat — viscose and polyester do not take cotton temperatures. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off. Fabric by the metre is cut in one piece; your ordered length arrives as a single cut.
What Satin in Purple is suitable for
- blouses and tunics
- occasion wear
- kimonos

Frequently asked questions
What ironing temperature?
Moderate, and from the reverse. Viscose and polyester do not take the heat used for cotton; too hot and the surface turns shiny or melts.
Which needle do I take?
A fine universal or microtex needle. The thinner the fabric, the finer the needle: too strong a needle leaves visible holes that never close again.
Scissors or rotary cutter?
On slippery goods the rotary cutter, because it does not lift the fabric. Scissors drag the layer along and the edge is no longer true.
Why does the seam pucker?
Because needle and stitch length do not suit the fabric. A fine needle, a shorter stitch and less presser foot pressure solve most of it. On very thin goods tissue paper under the seam helps, torn away afterwards.
