More About This Fabric

Bright, bold and impossible to ignore, Neon Petals is a floral for colour lovers.

A vivid cobalt blue background is scattered with loose, hand-drawn flowers in bubblegum pink, coral red and deep berry, creating a print packed with energy and movement. Some blooms are simply outlined while others are filled with blocks of colour, giving the design a wonderfully spontaneous, almost sketchbook-like quality.

We particularly love the slightly imperfect lines and elongated stems — they give the print so much personality and stop it feeling like a conventional floral.

Printed on soft and fluid viscose twill, it has beautiful drape and movement with enough weight to work for a wide variety of garments.

Turn it into a fabulous swishy dress, a statement blouse or even a pair of wide-leg trousers. This one deserves to be seen!

Care Instructions

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle
Wash with similar colours
Do not bleach
Do not tumble dry
Reshape while damp and air dry
Iron on a low to medium heat on the reverse
We recommend pre-washing before cutting, as viscose can shrink slightly on the first wash
For best results, avoid overloading the washing machine and remove promptly after washing to help minimise creasing.

This Fabric Is Perfect For...

Perfect for dresses, blouses, shirts, skirts, wide-leg and relaxed trousers, jumpsuits and co-ords.

Viscose twill has beautiful fluidity and movement while generally having a little more body than very lightweight viscose, making it particularly lovely for garments where you want drape without the fabric feeling too floaty.

Think swishy midi dresses, relaxed button-up shirts, bias-cut skirts, softly tailored trousers and easy jumpsuits.

Sewing Notes

Recommended Needle:
Microtex 60-80

Viscose twill is beautifully drapey, so take a little extra care during cutting to prevent the fabric from shifting. Cutting in a single layer can help with accuracy, particularly when working with larger pattern pieces or when you want to control print placement.

Use a fine, sharp needle — around 70/10 or 80/12 — and a good-quality polyester thread.

Fine pins or sewing clips are ideal, and a walking foot can be helpful if you find the layers moving against one another while sewing.

Staystitch curved or bias-cut areas such as necklines and armholes soon after cutting to help prevent them from stretching out of shape.

Because viscose can grow slightly once hanging, it's a good idea to allow skirts and dresses to hang before hemming, particularly with full, flared or bias-cut styles.

Finish your seams with an overlocker, zigzag stitch or your preferred enclosed seam finish for a neat result.
