Satin, this slinky material isn't a beginner's fabric. Its slippery texture takes experience to master. Without careful, skilled construction, a satin garment or other project can hang poorly and show puckered seams. The weave shows needle holes; it's much less forgiving of sewing errors than most fabrics. The silkiest satins, such as those made from actual silk, are delicate. They're prone to snags, thread pulls and surface abrasions that can ruin the fabric.
