Great Quality

Dresses and other form-fitting garments can be made with this fabric. It is not transparent, but if stretched out too far on the body, it could become such. Be careful if you choose a darker colored cloth because mine caught a lot of lint as I chose the color black. Overall, it worked great for my project and I made a cute graduation dress out of it!

Perfect for tee shirts

I have made several long sleeve tee shirts with this cotton jersey and they’re great. The fabric is opaque and is the perfect weight. The price can’t be beat and delivery is fast. I’ll definitely buy it again.
