I ironed the fabric (it is not completley flat then, but is not crinkly either) and then fused interfacing to the collar, collarstand, cuffs and front facing. When I finished the dress, I just made it wet and "crushed" it, the crinkles were back in (because you iron the dress while constructing anyway, so even the body is unwrinkled). The collar and such is not as crinkly, but you can see the crinkle lines and so you donĀ“t notice the difference. And the facing is anyhow on the inside. My fabric was a crinkle viscose/cotton blend. You can see the dress on my blog, a purple shirtdress.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571768280293463427.post-70232190464842755112008-03-23T19:17:00.000-07:002008-03-23T19:17:00.000-07:00Instead of ironing, do the pressing thing.

When I have used it and seersucker, I usually have flat fabric when I am done. <BR/><BR/>I noticed your eyelet fabric. I just finished 2 western shirts in that excat eyelet design and love them. Also the Hutterite girls I teach are making their blouses out of that fabric and they are looking great. Good choice.<BR/>AnnAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03600013213157963948noreply@blogger.com
