Oh my! This fabulous printed crepe de chine from Calamo Silks is so perfect for dresses, tops, or even totally luxe lining! With a print of stylized flowers that look rather like calla lilies, this will work so beautifully for so many garments! Make a pretty, flowy skirt using Just Patterns Yasmeen Skirt. For a sweet top, this will work marvelously with Simplicity S9045.
As is the norm with this fabric, this is sheer. So you may wish to line it, unless you are going for a "Gwyneth-at-the-Globes" effect.
