Introduction:

Nouveau Sacred Lotus is a delightful Pima cotton lawn, printed with an all-over Art Nouveau style design that has classic appeal. This detailed design consists of an interlocking and sinuous design of water lotus/lily-type flowers that sit in embracing curves amongst shell-like leaves and highlights of rippled water.

Colour:

This almost Arts and Crafts style of nature-inspired motifs (favoured by Morris and Liberty) is printed with an almost deco-style palette consisting of; a classic black background, where the elegant lilies/lotus flowers feature; complementary soft, light (and darker) rose pink, olive green and cool Eau de Nil green (which forms the outlined detailing) and makes for a perfectly put-together palette and make it ideal for sharp shirts and other up-to-date classics.

Properties:

Seriously soft, finely woven, lightweight, yet with excellent opacity and good stability plus a soft and elegant drape quality. This fabric will gather, tuck, pleat and form elegant fullness. For crisp details like collars, cuffs and button bands we recommend the use of a light/medium weight iron on interfacing.

Garment Suggestions:

This lovely lightweight cotton lawn will make classic shirts and blouses, pretty dresses, the cutest little girls' party dresses and baby rompers. Don't forget all those superb homespun patchwork styles around too.

For a delightful grown-up dress style, create the Wildergown - Friday Pattern Co for a bohemian prairie-style dress - make this pattern up with full gathers and layer up with cosy tights, boots and a cardigan to get even more wear from it. For a similar style: The Megan Nielsen Protea- Capsule Collection of dresses, skirts and tops has round and square necklines that you can easily layer and wear with a roll-neck top underneath. Equally suitable and beautiful is the Sew Different - Pink City Collection that is ideal for summer smart-casual dress up & dress down makes!

Other Uses:

Crafting? Add this perfect Pima lawn to your crafting stash for fun homespun makes. Sit Nouveau Sacred Lotus with perfect pin-stripes, ginghams and small florals for a carefully curated pink, green and black patchwork collection.

Specially selected matching buttons, pom-pom trim or ric-rac and other sewing notions will add a customised style to your makes.

Pima lawn is considered a very high-quality fabric originally made in South America, but has found its way to all corners of the globe due to its excellent strength, breathability and amazingly soft feel and weight; akin to lightweight silk. This is real luxury cotton.
