This is possibly the most gorgeous and most luxurious fabric in existence. I adore this stuff, and it's <$10 a yard! If you want any kind of dressy fabric, I would recommend buying this, dyeing yourself, and using it. It is such amazing stuff.

I bought this to use in a crazy quilt...and it's perfect! I'd love to make a blouse out of it as well. So wonderfully soft and drapey.

Very dissapointed in the quality of this charmeuse. It does not hold the dye as well as other I have used in the past, and isn't as soft and shimmery. I was attracted to the low price, and ordered a lot, which was a mistake. My advice is to order a small quantity first and then see if is to your liking before placing a large order.
