Imagine wearing a garment that is soft to touch and drapes well. It hangs beautifully and and feels luxurious to wear.
Viscose has all of those qualities and this Ananda print is a great choice.
And in case you are wondering, viscose is a natural fibre made from wood pulp (unlike rayon that is also a natural fibre but made from cellulose). The best thing about it is that it will keep you cool.
When sewing with this gorgeous fabric, choose a style that requires drape. Suitable garments include dresses, skirts, loose trousers, tunics and blouses.
Sewing a fluid fabric like rayon and viscose can be a little tricky but our advice is to use lots of pins, cut out with a rotary cutter, use a fine needle (70/10) and reduce your stitch length (2mm). But most importantly, take your time and enjoy the luxurious feel of the fabric.
