Every rose and leaf is outlined in gold foil, with fine gold dotting along the leaf edges, so the whole print lifts when the light moves across it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe ground shifts noticeably with the light. In daylight it reads as a pale ivory champagne. Under warm indoor light it deepens to a proper antique gold. Worth knowing before you match it to anything.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is a stretch velvet rather than a woven one. It gives across the width, has a slippery hand and a heavy, liquid drape that falls close to the body instead of standing away from it. 60 inches wide, with a soft short pile and a printed face.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat to make with it:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Abayas, occasion dresses, evening skirts, kimono jackets, Asian suits and dupattas. The pale ground makes this the dressiest velvet in our range and the one most often chosen for weddings and eid.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuy a little more than you think.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Velvet has a nap, so the pile lies in one direction and the colour changes depending on which way you look at it. This print is directional too, because the roses sit on stems that all run the same way. Every pattern piece has to be cut facing the same direction on both counts, so you cannot flip pieces to save cloth. Allow around 20% more than a pattern states.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFabric: Stretch velvet, foil printed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStretch: Yes, across the width\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWidth: 60 inches \/ approx. 150\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrint: Champagne Red Rose with gold foil\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSold by: the metre, cut as one continuous length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSewing velvet:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cut single layer with the nap running the same way on every piece. Use a ballpoint or stretch needle, lengthen your stitch, and let the fabric feed rather than pulling it through, as velvet shifts under the presser foot. Pin inside the seam allowance only, because pin marks can stay in the pile. Press face down on a towel from the reverse so you do not crush it, and test your iron temperature on a spare corner first.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCare:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Do not pre-wash this one. Unlike our cottons and viscose, velvet is best dry cleaned, or washed cool on a delicate cycle inside out if you must. Never tumble dry and never wring it. Hang to dry and the pile will settle on its own.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M Textiles","offers":[{"title":"Meters","offer_id":55674120733014,"sku":null,"price":7.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1045\/5426\/6966\/files\/IMG-1261.heic?v=1791502918","url":"https:\/\/mtextilesltd.com\/products\/champagne-red-rose-foil-stretch-velvet-per-metre-3-colours-available","provider":"M Textiles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
