Wintertime is not full of bright, saturated colors brimming with vitality, it's a quiet time where just a hint of color can punctuate the white world and be a statement of promise and hope. That's what I see in this print -- that gentle hint of the turning of the night into day. We love what our Featured Artist Clare did with this print. She used the Lily bralette from Stitch Love Studio and her favorite Bravo Bottoms #2, and pulled out Jade as her accent color. She also picked up the Thistledown and made a second bottom to go with her Etchings longline bra. We love the way the Etchings lace works with this print! They are such lovely companions! Our accent colors with this print are Thistledown, Jade, Iris and Lady Gray.
Our soft and luxurious Bamboo Jersey is a beautiful fabric for so many things! Our bamboo lycra jersey is a great choice for bra cups when paired with a stable cup fabric like sheer cup lining, and you can jazz up your bra by covering the band with the same or a coordinating print. It also works well for a T-shirt bra. It's especially great for panties. You can make a matching bra and panty set, and the 4-way stretch of the lycra jersey makes it very comfortable. Bamboo jersey is also a natural for men's boxer briefs. Every man that I have heard of loves his bamboo jersey boxer briefs!
This fabric is opaque and provides great coverage. There is a 50% to 75% stretch in the fabric in the both dimensions. To make it super easy to sew, saturate it with liquid starch to tame the stretch while sewing, and cut it 1/8" to 1/4" smaller than the stable fabric when making the non-stretch elements of your garment. It is light and bouncy and it doesn't ravel. Our bamboo is also very durable- during testing, we've learned it can withstand unpicking seams without getting small holes like many knits.
Bamboo jersey prints, like all our fabrics, are sold by the half-yard, and average 60" wide.
