Made by Lady McElroy in Britain
A soft, supple & and buttery blend of silk and cotton. This voile has a floaty, water-like drape, that almost moves in slow motion. Slightly wrinkle resistant and vibrantly coloured.
While sheer, it is not necessary to line this fabric depending on the project. Wearing a slip or singlet underneath will give coverage without taking away from the airyness of this fabric.
Suggested Projects: Loose and flowing garments like:
Parasol Dress – Cris Wood Sews
Pippit Duster – Common Stitch
Aray Top – Papercut Patterns
Wilder Gown – Friday Patten Company
For a less experienced sewist, try picking a pattern with simple/ straight lines, sewing along with the fabric grain makes the fabric easier to handle. French seams or rolled hem overlocking are recommended. For lining we recommend our range of Lucerne Cotton Voile.
