Sacre Bleu Silk Crepe De Chine Woven

Striking modern abstract print in a rich palette of blues, deadstock from an LA designer.  Right for a dress, shirt, kimono, blouse, tunic, skirt, soft pants, or lounge wear. Lightweight, with a smooth, cool, dry hand, light airy drape and 28" repeat. Marcy says, 'This would make a beautiful lining.'

I cut sheers with fabric and pattern placed on top of paper (computer weight, butcher paper, etc.), squaring off the ends to align the grain. Place the paper down first (tape together as needed), then fabric, pattern on top. Secure by pinning and cutting through all the layers. A rotary cutter works best as it does not lift up the layers. The paper keeps the shape of the pattern pieces so you can move them around to mark without distorting the shape. Sew with a sharp fine needle.
