Satin Fabric

The brushed satin is finely pressed , shiny, pleasant to the touch , flowing and elegant. Slightly stretches in width. You can also use it from the reverse side, which is matte.
Thanks to its luxurious appearance , satin is suitable for sewing formal and wedding dresses, ball gowns, festive blouses and long wheeled skirts . It is also suitable for pleating technique.

We have tried: Satin is slippery material, so it's good to have some experience with its processing. After washing it at the recommended temperature, it did not precipitate or release the colour. We recommend sewing it with size 70 needle and make sure that the needle is not damaged, satin could be damaged. Also, when sewing, be careful not to "pull" the thread on the surface of the material. As the satin fades slightly, clean the edges of the cut parts on an overlock sewing machine. We recommend ironing at a low temperature without steam, as this can cause unwanted stains on the fabric.

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

The seamstresses from our sewing workshop have prepared a simple comparison of different types of satin.
