Big and bold, this print bursts with flowers in vibrant pink and red, nestled among rich green leaves against a strikingly wild leopard spot background. China Silk, also known as Habotai, is a lightweight delicacy, often used as a lining to elevate sophisticated garments. Its sleek hand and flowing drape lend themselves to other eveningwear projects as well; envision your nights draped in cowl-neck dresses, breathable button ups, and even luxurious lingerie! A tip from our sewists: this slippery fabric becomes less daunting to sew when using pattern weights, sharp rotary blades, sharp needles, silk pins, and French seams. Get stitching!
