Ever sewn with brocade?? It’s an intricate woven o Ever sewn with brocade?? It’s an intricate woven often made with extra, loose weft threads to give a beautiful 3D feel – but, this means you will want to serge or zig zag the edges to keep it from the fraying it’s prone to. But, once you do this, the possibilities are ENDLESS with what you can create. @longancraft is definitely my go to for amazing fabric, and  I may need this Gold 3D Floral Brocade in every color….
