From Cynthia Steffe, this is a lovely Italian stretch cotton canvas, a jacketweight with an oversized tulip batik design (a one-way print) in black and natural (PANTONE 11-0606). It's substantial weight with a crisp drape but will soften with washing. It has just a tiny bit of stretch in the width only. Best for an eyecatching spring/summer jacket, canvas bag, etc. If you wish to wash at home please test first.
