Our Mood Exclusive Aquarium Garden Metallic Dotted Crinkled Viscose Crepe is a deep dive into your imagination. The ocean-blue background brings us below surface level to vibrant paisleys, leaves, and flowers doodled with quick strokes that mimic embroidery. The crinkled face, decorated with rows of metallic gold dots, displays the most distinguishable characteristics of a crepe: a grainy and crisp hand. A rippling drape compliments semi-casual silhouettes as its cool, medium-weight feel on the skin is perfect for all climates; create airy skirts, a-line sundresses, workday blouses, and more! As it is slightly transparent, a lining may be desired for complete opacity.

Here are a few tips from our sewists to master crepe’s unique texture:

1. Lower the thread tension on your sewing machine to prevent puckering
2. Use a new, fine point needle
3. To prevent slipping during cutting, line up your pieces with the pattern pieces, cut in single layers, and use a rotary cutter or tabletop scissors.
4. Be patient and have fun!
