Tips for Sewing | Works well with 70 stretch needle. Cool iron (I used Poly - Level 3) | Edges tend to curl. | ||
Misc. | Cold to the touch, thin but not at all see through, a bit of a sheen to it but not shiny, starts to lose print and turn white when stretched along the selvage. Does not curl along the edges. | A bit of a shine to the fabric. Seems stiff before you wash it. Very slippery. Edges do not curl. Imagine a thick Nylon swimsuit fabric. Because of the direction of most stretch, you may want to put pattern pieces perpendicular to pattern lay-out. |
Warm to the touch. Squishy, matte fabric. More of a cotton-y feel to the fabric. Edges will curl badly if you stretch fabric aggressively. | Cool to the touch, totally matte finish, cottony feel. No show-through even when stretched. |
I also made a little video review on YouTube about the four different types of fabric.
