I was worried that the hummingbirds would be too much. But they look lovely on a simply summer sheath dress. The weight of the fabric is perfect for the dress (although I did line it) and easy to work with.
The fabric is a nice off white easy on the eye. It is opaque.
It is a medium weight twill that is soft enough for comfortable pants or a jacket. I plan to buy fabric for pants. It is not stretchy, but has some give.
This fabric is amazing. It's crisp without being too stiff. It will require a lining depending on what you are using it for. Some much prettier in person. Can't wait to use it.
This is gorgeous with a fabulous sparkle. One will need to line it with a sheer mesh if it is to be worn against the skin as I think it will be a little scratchy.
Great weight to work with. Gorgeous color. Ironed beautifully. Fabric had wonderful body and for extra support I used a light weight interfacing.. Bodice was 1 yard and 6 yards for the skirt. Boning worked beautifully in the bodice on all seams including the bust of which the Burda pattern did not call for. Lined the garment with the stretch silk charmeuse lightly interfaced for extra support to the bodice. Fit like a glove and felt luxurious inside and out. I loved that the silk was a slightly different shade than the taffeta. Made it interesting and they complimented each other.
Thread was not as strong as expected. Kept twisting while hand stitching. Nice color match.
I am very happy with the fabric. It looks exactly like the photo. It is a vibrant print but the colors have a nice softness to them so that it is not garish. I like that because it is a very busy pattern.
Definitely order a swatch before ordering. The material is fine. My only problem was the color of the fabric wasn't what I expected. It said beige, but it has more peach tone to it.

Used for a pillowcase, worked beautifully! Be aware that it sheds a lot while cutting it.
