Looking for sewing thread to match?

Mettler Metrosene No. 739 or No. 913 are the best colour matches for Red Chrysanthemums.  We sell them for $1.90 each or two for $3.50.

Design Considerations:

This one-way design calls for a "with nap" layout.

To retain the graceful feeling of this print, choose a pattern with few seams, pockets or darts. The Bali Collection sewing patterns from The Batik Butik are designed for fabrics such as these.  For example with The Kintamani Tunic, you can make the longest tunic and shorten the side slits for an elegant, flowing dress with only shoulder and side seams.
