Swim tee

"This fabric was challenging to work with (20% lycra) - neither of my machines would sew it without skipping stitches (Babylock Espire and Accomplish) until i tried my the Espire on it's slowest setting, so I guess this fabric requires a very slow hook motion. (I had re-threaded and changed needles until I was blue in the face. ) My standard 11 titanium needle worked just fine."

Carolyn P. (4/5)

The Swimsuit of my Dreams!

"I love the hand feel, the weight, the stretch, the color, the print, and that's all before sewing with it! Sews like a dream, wears even better. Excellent 4 way stretch. I don't want to take it off."

Rebecca B. (5/5)

Good for swimwear and athleticwear

"Used it for swimwear. Would be great for leggings too as the fabric is totally opaque. Super stretchy, rich colorful print, very nice."

Bonnie D. (5/5)

Banana leaf print

"Smooth, midweight, beautiful print. Excellent stretch and recovery."

Dhargreaves (5/5)

Love me a banana leaf

"Its super soft and stretchy (but not too stretchy). The print is AWESOME & it was super easy to work with."

Lucy M. (5/5)

Great quality fabric

"Great stretch, soft, breathable, and would definitely reorder."

Jennifer B. (5/5)

Beautiful fabric

"Perfect fabric!!!"

Natassha M. (5/5)

Excellent swimsuit material

"This is the perfect weight and stretch for swimwear. Also, as someone fairly inexperienced with sewing I can say that the material is very easy to work with. I appreciate the SPF 50 rating and the aloe vera as well."

Tom R. (5/5)

Love this fabric!

"I'd been eyeing this fabric for a while and finally bought some to use for a rash guard and coordinating bikini set. It has a really luxurious feel, smooth and cool to the touch. I can't wait to wear it on vacation."

Angela S. (5/5)

Nice print

"The print is very nice. Would be a 5 star if it was on black material so when stretched the white doesn't show through."

Q&A

What is the stretch percentage? what I mean by that is if you take a 10 inch square and can stretch it to 15 inches that is 50% stretch, if you stretch the length side grain from 10 to 12” that is 20% stretch. That is question if you’re buying fabric for swimwear.
Hello Jeanie, I spoke to our fabric specialest and she informed me that the fabric is 50% stretch in all directions. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
What is the stretch percentage for the 4 way stretch?
Hello Jeanine, Thank you for contacting Moodfabrics.com Unfortunately, we do not have the specific stretch information you are requesting for this item. Most of our fabrics are purchased from designer overstock and we have very limited information on the specifics of said fabrics. Upon conducting a burn test we are able to determine the fiber types the fabric is mostly composed of. All of the information we have available on any particular fabric can be found in the product details section of the fabric page. In order to ensure that any fabric is the right fit for your project we strongly advise that you first order a swatch of the desired fabric. You can place a swatch order by clicking on the “Order Swatch” button located on the fabric page, swatches cost $1.50 each, this will transfer the swatch to your cart and you can order up to 40 swatches for a flat $3.49 shipping rate. Please feel free to contact us if you have any additional questions.
