Viscose poplin has a small amount of added elastane which results in a woven fabric that has a small amount of crosswise stretch (2 way stretch). This fabric should still be treated as a woven fabric and a regular sewing machine needle can be used. It has a good amount of drape but with the added weight due to the elastane makes it a comfortable fabric to wear. This version has a blue background and is covered in small white flowers and flower petals. This fabric would be ideal for sewing a floaty jumpsuit or culottes or a comfortable dress. Patterns such as the Avenir Jumpsuit by Friday Pattern Company or the Ninni Culottes by Named Clothing.
