I'm thinking of making my 14 year old daughter an outfit for her brother's wedding with crepe backed satin. I'm looking at butterick pattern 4021 which claims to be easy.
Does anyone know if it's worth buying the material cheaply from a UK ebay store ( £2.75 to £3.50) or if I have to spend £8 or more from a 'normal' shop to get something decent? Bearing in mind, I don't know if she'll wear it again !
Also, how easy is this kind of fabric to work with? Any hints or tips?
I've worked with velvet before but not really anything as slippery as this.
Many thanks
Susan
