Cotton or viscose, linen or cotton, silk or satin, organza or chiffon… In this second chapter of L’Atelier des Matières, I compare different materials, their drape, behaviour, and uses in sewing to help you choose the fabric best suited to your creation.

Natural, synthetic, price, thickness… Discover the most common misconceptions about fabrics and learn what really determines their quality.

Discover the difference between fibres, yarns, materials and fabrics. Learn how fibres become textiles and how their composition and construction influence drape, texture, elasticity and behaviour in sewing.
