100% Japanese Cotton – Eloise Floral - Black
- 144cm Wide
Eloise is a fun floral print with vivid gold, hot pink, fresh green and red on a black background. The colour combination is striking, and the black background is fabulous for working with black 'bottoms'. Of course, this would be a gorgeous dress. See the Indie Pattern suggestions below.
The base cloth has a Uri Japanese 'jacquard' effect applied to it, and when printed this gives an interesting dimension to the design. The print is not directional. It is a very pleasing 144cm wide, which is much wider than most Japanese cottons.
This cloth is perfect for staying cool in summer, but would be a beautiful shirt or blouse at any time of year. The sections of fabric with no 'jacquard' application are more transparent, but this is detracted by the print and overall effect. You may need to line skirts.

Cloth Care:
While cotton can generally be machine washed and tumble dried without any problem, this is a lightweight and delicate fabric, so take more care of the cloth/garment, so hand wash or use a short / delicate cycle and place inside a mesh washing bag. Wash colours separately. The finished garment will last longer and look better if it is shaken out when wet, and placed on a hanger to dry. Tumble drying will shorten the life of the garment, and potentially damage the jacquard effect. Do Not Tumble Dry. To prevent fading, wash inside out and dry in the shade. Cotton needs a warm to hot iron. Conduct a spot test. Cotton is dry cleanable.
