Description
Viscose is a cellulose fibre: of plant origin, with the drape and sheen otherwise known from silk. The web measures 140 cm across; its weight comes to 185 g/m². Its composition reads 7 % polyester and 93 % viscose.
Mint sits in the green field and reads fresh or earthy there depending on saturation. Flowers are the motif that stays in fashion longest; this print brings them at a scale that works on small pieces too. The fabric slips while cutting. With clips instead of pins and a rotary cutter the layer stays where it belongs.

Frequently asked questions
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.
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.
