Cotton smooth satin fabric, width 305 cm

Cotton satin in an extra-standard width is soft, smooth, pleasant to the skin, breathable and absorbs moisture very well . He doesn't lie. Unlike polyester satin, it does not cool. You can use it to sew bed linen, pillows, tablecloths, curtains and clothes (shirts, dresses, etc.).

We have tried: After washing at the recommended temperature, it shrunk by 3% in width and length, so it is advisable to take into account shrinkage or pre-precipitate the material when cutting. A small drawback is that you can no longer iron the satin perfectly smooth after washing, and the material has a slightly crumpled appearance.

Before sewing, the fabric should be soak in hot water without chemicals, so it shrinks.

The fabric measurements needed for sewing basic garments and home textiles, can be found here .
