Starting off very shiny this is a finish that will wash out and after a few washes, the fabric has a delicate sateen sheen and is extremely soft and luxurious to touch. It has a lovely drape and is perfect for dresses, quilts, shirts, head wraps, scarves, lightweight pants, sarongs curtains, cushions and more.
This fabric is commonly used as the base cloth for many hand dyed fabrics in West Africa.
I’m a blue fan and this rich purplish blue is delish. I was a bit surprised by how fine the cotton is once I was the fabric before sewing. But it will drape beautifully once made into a shirt for this one I think.
Lovely lovely cotton. There is nothing like this in our local shops.
