Rayon Suiting Fabric with “Tweed” Weave, Stretch

Rayon Suiting fabric, a metallic Gold and Black “Tweed” weave with a wonderful 2-way stretch that goes with the length of the fabric.

An airy hand, light/medium suiting weight it can drape –

Workable fabric that can be used for everything from a designer jacket, suit, coat, dress, skirt, top or pants.

Made in France, 55 inches wide, a Rayon/Lurex/Polyester/Polyamide blend with a small touch of wool.

We call this a tweed, and it has the characteristics in weight and hand but it does not have as much lift as an average tweed suiting, although there is still depth and texture. A tremendous quality that would make an elegant, stylish garment.

Pattern Suggestions:
Safran Pants from Deer and Doe Pattern we love, the stretch couples well with the tight fit. You cold also do a dress or pant with a looser fit, see the Evelyn skirt from Chalk and Notch Pattern or their Isle Jeans that couple with a stretchy garment.

Also see the tunic-like dress, Simplicity S8640 – easy and great.

Modern Sewing Co. and the unisex shirt for a winter option, or the Darcy Jacket that they offer.

Another lovely jacket would be Vogue V1972 – semi fitted with a shawl collar.

Price is per Yard
