Suggested fabrics: Light/medium weight woven fabric. Lightweight fabrics with good drape such as viscose/rayon/silk are the best option. Slightly more structured wovens such as poplin, lawn, linen blends or chambray work well too. Low stretch/stable knits can also be used.

Fabric requirements: Yardage is based on directional fabric. If your fabric is non-directional, you may need less.
