Stylish FABRIC 60ft Wide Printed Rayon Spandex Jersey Knit Fabric

In this review of Stylish FABRIC 60' wide printed rayon spandex jersey knit fabric, the bottom line is simple: this cloth is best for makers who need a soft, highly stretchy, lightweight knit for tops, activewear accents, accessories, and children's garments. Our review found the fabric excels at comfort and color retention while being easy to sew and layer, making it a reliable choice when stretch, drape, and a soft hand are the priorities rather than structured garments or fully lined dresses.

Key Features

• Material blend: The 95% rayon and 5% spandex mix gives a very soft hand and natural drape that flatters casual tops and lightweight dresses.
• Stretch and recovery: Four-way stretch plus good recovery helps garments keep their shape after wear and repeated movement.
• Breathability: The jersey knit construction is breathable and moisture-wicking, suitable for everyday wear and low-impact active pieces.
• Easy to sew: The fabric is forgiving for home sewing and crafts, allowing clean seams and simple finishes when using appropriate needles and stretch stitch.
• Color retention: Vibrant printed colors hold up well, so finished projects stay visually true over time when cared for gently.
• Continuous cuts: Available in continuous cuts so you can order exact yardage needed for larger projects without seams in length.

Who It's For

This fabric suits sewists making fitted tops, leggings accents, casual dresses and skirts, lightweight scarves, and soft accessories where a soft, stretchy jersey is desirable. It works well for childrens clothing and maternity pieces that benefit from gentle stretch and drape.

Those seeking substantial, fully opaque fabric for structured dresses or heavy outerwear should look elsewhere, since customers and reviewers note the material is quite thin and better used as a single-layer top or as a layered component in outfits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this fabric suitable for leggings?
It can be used for fitted leggings accents or light lounge leggings, but its thinness means it is best for layered or casual styles rather than heavy-duty activewear.

How should I care for the fabric?
Wash gently in cold water and air dry or tumble dry low to preserve color and stretch; use a stretch needle when sewing.

Will the printed color match exactly?
Color may vary by monitor and dye lot, so request a sample cut or color card if exact matching is critical.
