Fabric
Suggestions:
Fabric that is soft and has good movement. Rayon, poly, soft cotton, light weight
wools and silk. Knits are okay if they do not have a lot of stretch. When piecing
fabric, keep in mind the fabrics you use should be related in weight and movement.
Notions:
Thread, buttons.
Options: interfacing may be needed depending on the fabric weight. Shoulder
pads are recommended.
