Moonglow Vinyl

Supple and richly textured, this vinyl is the closest to real leather I've found. Moonglow Vinyl Fabric from Sew Hungry Hippie is a beautiful vinyl with a luxurious feel and look, a matte finish and lots of texture! It feels like a drapey leather - thick enough to hold body but thin enough to sew.

Thickness is 0.7mm. Cuts easily with sewing shears. Add interfacing, or leave as is. Sews easily on a domestic machine. You may or may not need to use a Teflon sewing foot. Sewable using a chrome universal needle size 80 but you can use a Microtex needle for extra ease.

Moonglow Vinyl is Sew Hungry Hippie's signature matte faux leather, which Natalie describes as the closest to real leather she has found.
