🪡 Sewing Tips

Use a stretch or ballpoint needle and test stitch length and tension on a scrap before sewing. A walking foot can help feed the knit evenly.

Prewash before cutting to allow for any minimal shrinkage and to soften the fabric hand.
Do not tumble dry.
Iron at a low temperature if needed.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What can I sew with this fabric?

Sleeveless sweaters, lightweight cardigans, knit dresses, and everyday loungewear in a soft pastel floral.

How much fabric do I need for a dress or blouse?

Fabric is sold by the half yard, cut in one continuous piece. A fitted top typically takes 2–3 half-yard units, a blouse or shirt 3–4, and a midi dress 5–6 — order 4 units for 2 continuous yards.

Will it shrink?

Very little — polyester-elastane is dimensionally stable. Still pre-wash before cutting to relax the knit.

Is it see-through?

No — at 190 g/m² it is opaque; unlined garments are fine.

What needle and thread should I use?

A stretch or ballpoint needle (75/11–80/12) with all-purpose polyester thread. Use a narrow zigzag or stretch stitch, and test on a scrap first.

Is it really limited edition?

Yes — Atelier 27 prints each design in a single small run in France and never reprints it. When our bolt sells out, this print is gone for good. We stock it here in the US, so there is no import shipping or customs from France.
