I order this to make into a dress for Spring Racing here in Australia, so I don't have any pictures yet, but I am very happy with the material and can't wait to have the dress made.
The colour is lighter than the picture might have you believe, I think more of a lilac but still very beautiful - and actually even a bit better for what I wanted.
Only 4 stars because of the colour difference, however a swatch would ensure it's a colour you want. That's just a little impractical for me as I live so far away.
At $2.00 per yard, I can't pass up the opportunity to buy muslin to make toiles from my vintage dress patterns. It's the perfect weight for most blouses, skirts, and dresses. The fabric doesn't require ironing on the selvedges in order to get the most utility out of it, and it's easy to write on for making fitting changes.
I can generally get two pattern toiles out of each 5-yard pack, and at $10, that's a pretty good bargain for making sure my toile fits before I cut it out of the good stuff.
I liked sewing with this vinyl a lot! It was mildly flexible, soft without being flimsy, and true to color (not neon or bright lime, but a good swampy yellow-green).
It was a breeze to work with and my customers love it. Feels amazing against the skin. I made a bra and fitness shorts out of it for a client who lives in Arizona so the anti-microbial touch is perfect.
Lately I have made tops and skirts rather than dresses. So many more options. Together they appear to be a dress but by separating them I have at least 5-7 different outfits. It's great for travel.
I used this fabric along with two others to create a wrap top inspired by origami. Every component in this top has been created through triangles (the sleeve consisting of over 200 each). This Fabric allowed for a great contrast in pattern and lovely shine! I loved the stretch and natural drape of the fabric as well as the soft, warm summer colours.

Great quality thread. Here is a project I completed using a different color Guttermann thread.

Perfect weight and softness. Matches the original padding.

Metal curve lasts much longer than the plastic ones.

For my ever changing pant fitting needs.

This fabric I used inside out because I like the deeper colors in the inside. Made a beautiful double breasted jacket. Not complete yet.
