Beautiful designs in satin

Use satin to create beautiful accessories for everyday and on special occasions. For example, sew a puffy bag or tote bag that you can use for everyday and on special festive occasions. You can also choose to use the shiny fabric as a lining in your project; it adds a beautiful finish.

 

And then, of course, you can use satin for clothing - for example, a nice satin shirt, a pair of cool satin trousers or maybe a jumpsuit with a drawstring waist.

 

The fabric has a width of 135 cm and shrinks about 3% in the wash. It can be washed at 30°, always hang dry and iron at low heat.

 

TIP: Use good quality fleece and interfacing to stabilise smaller parts like collars and cuffs. We recommend ironing it on before cutting out the pattern pieces - and remember to iron without steam (water can leave small stains and the high temperatures from the steam can change the surface of the fabric!)

What is satin?

Satin refers to the way the fabric is woven, where one side of the material is smooth and shiny. For this satin you will need microtex needles. 

 

What is STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®?

OEKO-TEX® is the world-leading label for textiles tested for harmful substances.

Once the fabric has achieved a STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certification, it is your guarantee it has been tested and approved not to contain any harmful chemicals.

Meaning it is neither harmful to you nor your health and it’s less harmful to the environment.
