Fabric Rayon

I love being rayon, So cool in tropic's heat, I dry fast when wet, wrinkle free! Audacious hues surprise, A medley for your eyes. Fabric soft as butterfly wings. 11-6-17 © Connie Marcum Wong * I was too late to enter the contest

What a pity, Connie! I love your take on this fabric topic and I am sure the sponsor would have judged this highly. Regards // paul

It is my summer fabric of choice too. It flows like heroines gown in an old time movie and clings to all of the right spots. You have captured this cloth well.

The fabric does dye well and looks great in Hawaiian print. You describe it perfectly Patricia. Thank you very much.: )

I don't know of this contest either, but I guess one must be a fabric of their choice? It is darned cute, what you wrote, and clever as well. Not too late to entertain me! Love ... CayCay

Shame you did not get this in on time Connie. The colourful hues of Rayon would indeed match your beautiful tropical island paradise. Great depiction Connie....Maria xxx

If you come to visit Hawaii, especially in summer, bring some clothing made of rayon. Rayon or artificial silk is a manufactured regenerated cellulose fiber. It is processed mainly from wood pulp Andrea. There is quite a complicated process it goes through. Another name for it is viscose. Anyway, it is my favorite fabric to wear in the tropics. Thank you my friend. : )

Lovely imagery, Connie. That butterfly wings line is amazing! I'm sure this would have done well in the contest; such a shame you missed it... but thanks for sharing! All the best, John.
