Hi,
I have made a skirt out of crinkle cotton, and since washing it, the fabric has gone flat. Is there any way of re-crinkling it?
Many thanks
Elizabeth

Check out the instructions at the bottom of this page:
Singer has the directions in one of their sewing books as do several other sewing and craft books. The Singer method uses the microwave to set the fabric. I would suggest looking in your public library if you don't want to have to buy the book, or Google for "Broomsticking Techniques" for other book sources. Good Luck! Cynthia
and if you can't find another person to twist with you :-), fold the waistband in 4 and hold between your knees, then keep twisting with your hands. Thin chinese silk can also be crinkled like that - so having a plain silk skirt is like having two - one day ironed, the next crinkly. Anna (change ombre to omberis)
