The Minerva Core Range Light Sheer Chiffon in Aubergene is a versatile, airy fabric designed for dressmakers and crafters who need a delicate, floaty drape for garments or accessories. It is an ideal choice for adding ethereal volume to designs like overlays, flutter sleeves, and layered skirts, though its inherent sheerness necessitates the use of linings or multiple layers for opaque coverage.

No, this is a light sheer chiffon. It will require a lining or a base layer to achieve full opacity.
Yes, it is crease-resistant and holds its shape well. If it does wrinkle, use a cool iron setting.
No, this fabric is very light and floaty. It is better suited for summer garments, overlays, or formal wear.
A narrow rolled hem, either done by hand or with a rolled hem foot, provides the cleanest finish.
Like most chiffon fabrics, it can snag if it comes into contact with rough surfaces or sharp jewelry, so handle with care.
We recommend washing in cool water with like colors to maintain the integrity of the Aubergene dye.
Place the fabric on top of a layer of tissue paper and pin through both layers to provide stability.
Reduce your thread tension and ensure you are using a new, sharp Microtex needle.
Use French seams or a narrow rolled hem to fully enclose the raw edges of the fabric.
For best results, use a sharp Universal or Microtex needle (size 60/8 or 70/10) to prevent snags. When cutting, place tissue paper underneath the fabric to prevent it from sliding on your cutting mat. For seam finishes, French seams are highly recommended to prevent fraying and to maintain a clean internal appearance.
