Tropical Splash

Very simple strapless shirt that I'm excited share with you. I found both of the fabrics at Hancock Fabrics. The floral fabric is made of rayon. I like using woven rayon because the drape is beautiful. One down side is that woven rayons tend to warp on the bolt so you'll want to straighten the grain before cutting the pattern, which I'll be demonstrating in the tutorial which is soon to come. Also, rayon tends to fade faster so I recommend dry cleaning any rayon prints, which can be an unwanted expense but also worth it.
