Stillwater Sunrise – Rayon

Have you ever gazed into a still pond and forgotten everything around you? Katie O'Shea's Stillwater Sunrise captures exactly that feeling – in fabric form! Shimmering hummingbirds, dancing dragonflies, and delicate blossoms in soft gold, olive, turquoise, and coral frolic on a rich, deep green background. The print evokes a sunny morning stroll along a secret forest path – full of life, yet wonderfully calming. The flowing drape of the fine rayon gives the fabric a luxurious fall, ideal for projects that need lightness – from a fluttering summer dress to an elegant kimono jacket.

Viscose – also known as rayon – is a plant-based fiber derived from cellulose (mostly wood). It feels wonderfully soft and cool on the skin, drapes beautifully, and has an elegant, silky sheen. This makes it ideal for summery clothing with lovely movement – from dresses to blouses. Viscose absorbs colors particularly intensely, making it perfect for detailed prints. Important: It likes to be treated gently – preferably wash cold, do not wring, and hang to dry.

Project Ideas:
Stillwater Sunrise is perfect for airy blouses, flowing maxi dresses, elegant scarves, or light summer pants. A boho kimono for balmy evenings or a romantic nightgown also look dreamy! Combine it with solid-colored rayon in olive green or coral for a harmonious look – or add a touch of glamour with gold accents.
