Cousette 'Cléo' 100% Viscose

Singuliere by Cousette Viscose -  'Cléo' (Dark)

• 140cm wide
• 130 gsm approx.
• Made in France
• 100% Ecovero viscose
• Non-Directional abstract floral print
  
• Use a microtex machine needle

'Cléo' was Cousette's first exclusive print of 2024, and it's often out of stock ;-).  I can see why.  It's a gorgeous abstract floral design with a beautiful colour palette, all on a black background.   The flowers and foliage are in pink, lavender, mauve, purple, cool grey, coral, orange, brown, chartreuse and fern and dark green.  This will be a show-stopping dress or blouse any time of year.  It's a very good weight at 130gsm and more substantial than many viscoses.  If you struggle with floaty viscoses, you will love sewing this cloth.  

This design is also available in a new colourway: 'Spring'.
