080: What are powernet and power mesh fabrics?


Listen Later

If like me you have found the terms powernet, power mesh and stretch mesh confusing then this episode for you.

After finally finishing my Willowdale bra this week I thought it would be fun to talk about these fabrics that create the foundations of our lingerie and swimwear but can be used for many more applications.

So this week I wanted to share my thoughts on what the definitions are for each of these fabrics, how they are made that makes them so great and lots of ideas of ways in which you can use them in your dressmaking.

In the blog post for the episode you'll find lots of links and resources to explore these fabrics more.

If you haven't tried them before then I hope this inspires you to give them a go. If you have tried them then I hope it gives you some new ideas on other ways in which you can use them.

As always I'd love to hear your thoughts about these fabrics so please do get in touch!
