Sun Valley Plaid Cotton Flannel Woven

Cheerful sunny plaid in shades of yam, cream and gray in an exceptional quality cotton flannel. Mid/light weight, yarn dyed with a super soft hand, cozy brushed finish on both sides, a 7-1/4" repeat, reversible and a soft malleable drape. Delicious and cozy to wear. Right for a shirt, dress, vest, tunic, men's shirt, children's clothing, cozy pj's or robe.

To figure extra yardage to match plaids, multiply the repeat by the number of main pattern pieces. For example, if the repeat is 4" and you have 4 main/large pattern pieces, you would need a minimum of 16 extra inches. To match plaids, cut single thickness, starting with the main pattern piece at center front or back, placing CF/CB centered between (NOT ON), a dominant color or line, then cut one piece at a time, using the cut out piece as a pattern piece for the next, flipping, so you get a left and right side. I draw the plaid on the pattern pieces to match at side seams and notches on sleeves. If the plaid is unbalanced, cut as for a nap. Sew with a walking foot to prevent shifting. Some pieces like pockets, yoke and collar can be cut on the bias.

Machine wash/dry gentle; after sewing wash gentle and air dry.
