What is a coupon fabric?
Each material for sewing the product has its own distinctive features. The final result of tailoring depends on the selected type of fabric . Usually, the first thing you choose is the style of the dress, and then its fabric and color. But not in the case of the coupon option.
The name of the fabric coupon came from France. In translation, the word means "part of a security". In sewing, this is called a piece of fabric. The fundamental difference in working with this type of matter is the fact that it is cut not by meters, but by fragments of the picture. Products look finished only if the integrity of the picture is respected.
The styles of dresses made of coupon fabric also depend on its composition. The pattern can be applied both to soft synthetic material, and to coarse, from natural fibers. Among the most common patterns on the surface of the fabric, the coupon is often depicted:
- flowers and compositions with them,
- landscapes
- animals
- city motives
- ornaments.
Types of coupon fabric
Material for sewing dresses and suits can be divided into two groups.
- The figure is shown along the edge. In this case, the pictures change to the center of the canvas. A vivid example is the image of flowers and grass along the edge of the dress, and to the belt there is a transition to butterflies and tall stems of plants.
- Mirroring drawings. After a certain distance, the image repeats. This is more characteristic of ornaments.
