Pressing and Inspecting

Pressing and Inspecting

The ironing should not be too hot or it should not have snag on the sole of it. Use a sheet of baking paper to protect the fabric. If the silk has some stretch, it is best to press it through another layer of fabric such as cotton and silk.

Rayon has been around for many years and the processes used to create it were pioneering in the early manufacture of materials. It is an integral part of the fabrics for nowadays, Rayon is a fibre and not a completely natural product because it undergoes several chemical processes.

However, it is extracted from the cellulose in wood pulp and it is not entirely artificially fibre

Wash fabric: Rayon shrinks easily. It needs to be pre washed, dried, thinned and iron it before sewing.

Laying fabric: Lay an old, clean sheet or some cotton fabric on the table. Then lay fabric to be cut.
