The Minerva Core Range Soft Polyester Satin Fabric in Bright Green is an excellent choice for dressmakers and hobbyists looking for a versatile, smooth, and high-quality material for projects ranging from occasion wear to linings. It offers a professional-grade soft sheen and reliable handling characteristics that simplify the sewing process for both beginners and experienced sewists.

Yes, it is excellent for bridalwear, particularly for dresses, linings, or bridesmaid outfits due to its soft sheen.
All fabric is cut from the roll and supplied in one continuous piece based on the total number of metres ordered.
Yes, it is fully machine washable at 40°C.
The fabric measures 147cm in width.
It is a light-to-medium weight fabric, making it versatile for many dressmaking applications.
We recommend using a sharp, fine-point needle to ensure the best results and avoid damaging the satin surface.
Place a piece of tissue paper underneath the fabric when cutting or use extra pattern weights to hold it firmly in place.
Adjust your machine tension and use a fresh, sharp sewing machine needle to ensure smooth thread penetration.
Use very fine silk pins and pin only within the seam allowance to keep the visible surface of the fabric pristine.
To prepare this fabric, ensure you wash it at 40°C before sewing to account for any initial shrinkage. When laying out your patterns, utilize the full 147cm width to maximize your yardage. Because the fabric is slippery, use fine glass-headed pins or pattern weights to keep your pieces secure during the cutting phase. When sewing, a standard stitch length is usually sufficient, but test on a scrap piece to ensure the tension does not cause puckering. Always iron on a low polyester-appropriate heat setting to protect the sheen.
