Thought Impressions Stretch Polyester Crepe by Mood Fabrics

“Beauty of speech leaves a beguiling and unforgettable impression; this holds for everyone, ...” even our Mood Exclusive Thought Impressions Stretch Polyester Crepe! From the Mood Exclusive Kenko Collection: Crisp with a dry, whippy feel, this medium-weight wonder expresses a barely-there sheen across its digitally-printed facing. A stippling sensation, whirling paisley motifs in shades of opal, dill, port, tapestry, and phantom collide against this antique-white backdrop, composing a surreal scene; and as “...the sight sinks deeply into one's being... one feels ‘Oh! for a friend with whom to share this!'”. And, who wouldn't want to share this gem? With its wrinkle-resistant surface and natural slimming effect, it is quite the dream! Specially constructed with a tactile plain weave, tightly-twisted yarns (woven through the weft) attempt to unwind, creating the characteristic springy surface and textured hand crepe fabrics are known for; spun with elastomeric fibers, expect about 20% weft-wise stretch and about 10% stretch through the warp. “...being pleasing to the eye and at the same time useful for all sorts of purposes…” translate this stunning beauty into countless silhouettes—taking inspiration from its no-nonsense, billowy drape (and the poetic writings of Yoshida Kenko!): Fashion full and tailored looks such as an elegant (or casual) wrap dress, a gathered blouse or tank, a classic jacket or trendy blazer dress, and more. Also great for pleated pants and trousers, check out The Aster Pants free sewing pattern offered on our Mood Sewciety blog and sew yourself a special pair of culottes! Semi-translucent—colors may show through; a lining would grant true opacity.
