FINAL PIECE MAKING

  

Hi there!
In this post today I will show you the process of cutting the fabric I decide to work with. it a very fine fabric call organdy.
Cotton organdy fabric is a sheer, lightweight, crisp material, similar in characteristics to silk organza. The distinct body is due to a pronounced twisting of the fibers during the manufacturing process, resulting in an extremely moldable  plain weave fabric. Permanent crispness can be achieved with a chemical treatment, otherwise the starch in the fabric will wash out over time. Organdy is very easy to work with and pleats easily, and tends to wrinkle badly but can be quickly smoothed with a hot iron.
The colour I chose to work with was canary yellow.


















Thanks.
