{"product_id":"nocturne-navy-velvet-knit","title":"Nocturne Navy Velvet Knit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe deepest nighttime navy blue in a supple velvet knit, deadstock from an LA designer. Mid\/lightweight with a soft velvety hand, silky smooth on the back side, a fluid drape with crosswise stretch, and excellent recovery. Cut for nap. A fabric to dress up or down; right for a top, t-shirt, dress, skirt, cardigan, hoodie, jacket or light coat, kimono, caftan or soft pants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTest a sample before putting in the dryer.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSewing \u0026amp; Pressing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMark with tailor’s tacks. I use embroidery thread for this as it does not pull out easily. Take one stitch through the fabric leaving ¾” tails. One stitch only. Then gently separate the layers and clip the threads. Or, mark with a dressmaker’s pencil, making a dot at each marking. I lick the pencil to give it a bit more color and lasting power. The biggest sewing challenge is to keep the fabric from shifting as you sew. My preferred method is to use a walking foot in combination with spray adhesive like 505 Spray. Cover your work surface with paper and carefully mask off the seam allowance with paper. Spray a light, consistent amount of spray within the seam allowance, then carefully line up the edges, right sides together, and stitch. This is quick and works beautifully. It is a little-known secret of couture houses that for years the seamstresses have relied on similar spray adhesives for just this purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressing: Keep a light hand, use a LOT of steam, and use a clapper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epoly\/spandex\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e57\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ruben","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48091008237673,"sku":null,"price":10.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/5176\/files\/NOCTURNENAVYVELVETKNIT-3.jpg?v=1789842641","url":"https:\/\/marcytilton.com\/en-fr\/products\/nocturne-navy-velvet-knit","provider":"Marcy Tilton Fabrics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
