Introduction:

Precious Emerald is a superb quality cotton single jersey that is ideal for teaming with others to create fun colour-blocked pieces or pretty stand-alone outfits.

Colour:

Featuring wonderfully vibrant emerald green with hints of turquoise for added impact.  Add this colourful gem to your bespoke makes for a cheery colour injection!

Properties:

Boasting a soft comfortable breathable cotton feel, good retentive stretch, widthwise 20-30% thanks to a little added elastane and natural ease down the length. 

Precious Emerald is lightweight but has good opacity and a soft drape that will form pretty gathers and ruffles. This joyful cotton jersey feels cool and comfortable to touch and will feel great next to the skin. A subtle sheen adds extra smoothness, we think attributed to mercerised yarns.

Garment Suggestions:

Single jersey fabrics are ideal for creating easy wear, easy-care, quick-make garments for the whole family; such as T-shirts, vests, camisoles, nightwear, simple T-shirt dresses, and shirred bodice summer dresses add some pretty ruffles for added impact. Utilise the soft drape quality and create blouse-like Dolman sleeved tops, with deep gathered cuffs for a retro style. Twist and knot detail tops are flattering and perfect styles to make in this soft cotton jersey. Team with other similar weight single jerseys to create contrasting baseball-style raglan sleeve tops like the Tilly and the Buttons - Frankie.

Other Uses:

This versatile Precious Emerald cotton and elastane single jersey fabric is ideal for adding to your 'me made' accessories wardrobe for elegant headwear, scarves, turban styles and easy-make infinity scarves perfect for year-round wear. Also perfect for swaddling wraps for newborn photo shoots and countless baby accessories.
