The Meet MILK Ruby Tencel Lyocell Jacquard in Lapis is designed for sewing enthusiasts and fashion makers who prioritize sustainable, high-quality textiles with a sophisticated finish. This medium-weight fabric offers a unique woven geometric design that provides both depth and structure, making it ideal for garments like structured dresses, skirts, and lightweight jackets. While it offers a luxurious feel and excellent drape, users should note that as a 100% Tencel Lyocell material, it requires specific low-temperature washing to preserve its integrity and prevent shrinkage.

Yes, it is manageable for beginners, but because it is slightly more fluid than quilting cotton, using plenty of pins or clips is recommended.
Tencel can experience slight shrinkage. Always pre-wash your fabric before cutting your patterns.
It is better suited for a light jacket or shirt-jacket rather than a heavy winter coat due to its 150gsm weight.
Use a medium iron setting and a press cloth to ensure the jacquard pattern remains crisp and undamaged.
Yes, all orders are cut as one continuous piece from the bolt.
Apply a zigzag stitch or a serged edge to the cut pieces immediately after cutting to prevent unravelling.
Use a fresh, sharp microtex needle and adjust your tension settings; a slightly longer stitch length often works best for this medium-weight jacquard.
To prepare the fabric, always pre-wash at 30 degrees Celsius to account for the natural properties of Tencel fibers. Use a mild detergent and avoid harsh bleaches to protect the vibrant Lapis color and the delicate jacquard weave. For the best sewing results, match the fabric with high-quality polyester or cotton thread. When ironing, use a medium heat setting and consider using a pressing cloth to avoid direct heat contact with the jacquard texture. Avoid tumble drying; hang the fabric to dry in a shaded area to maintain the structural integrity of the Lyocell fibers over time.
