MASTERCLASS
SATIN & SILK
1 Make a toile (test garment) from an inexpensive polyester before you cut into special material.
2 Wash or dry clean your silk before you begin.
3 Use a new, universal Sharps or Microtex needle, size 9/60-10/70. Larger size needles can leave holes or cause the seams to gather slightly as you sew. Blunt needles can snag the fabric and cause runs.
