Do you think this fabric would be appropriate for head scarves or sarongs?

Might be, it's soft enough but not very warm though. I use it as a table cloth. And the threads on the edges are easy to become loose.

I think it would depend upon the length of the curtains and if there is direct sunlight into the room. I think it almost always pays to line curtains - they hang better and avoid sun fading. The lighter weight fabric you are considering using would work this way for curtains, but probably not for what we consider to be drapes.

I'd use it for clothes that wouldn't pick up color from bamboo, But It would work! I sue it as roost for chickens. It's light and fairly small, as ladders go, but about right size to go near dryer.

There is quite a bit of stretch and also quite a bit of excess material, so I am not 100% sure but I think it would work okay

Hello, I'm sorry I wish I could answer more questions regarding this Dress form however it was a present for my daughter whom is the expert with sewing clothing, she seems very content with it and says that it is good for draping and serves its purpose well but other than that I'm really not very knowledgeable on this topic...sorry..wish I could be of more help.

It is very light weight. I would think it would be better to use this particular material for a mummy costume. It's very transparent and see-through almost like gauze bandage, but in a bigger roll.

Yes, I would say it could hold up for that. The material was great for the art class my granddaughter was taking. She's just four, so it was nice to just cut off the excess of the sleeves so they had just the right length.

I agree with steve and qaz, but if you have a cover maybe quilted or crochet, then I dont see why not:)

This material is used to make backpacks for hiking all the time, so I'd imagine it would do just fine. Your stitching would have to match, as that could be the weak point in sewing it.

My impulse is to say no. I bought the fabric to make a blouse for a costume for a friend, and even for that purpose the material needed to be lined because it was thin enough to be too sheer in the white areas. The material is about as thick and sturdy as a satin bed sheet. I hope this helps.

I would not recommend it be used for headbands because they would hang too low and over lap one another. However if they are the elastic kind or possibly about the size of a bracelet then it should be ok. I hope that helps in your decision.

It might be a bit heavy, not terribly, but maybe not comfortable for longer periods of time. If I were to do this, I'd be inclined to pierce holes in the end and attach a ribbon to securely tie it to my head. It also may be a bit larger/bulkier than you'd like. I don't think it would work well for a more traditional, accurate look, but maybe a more casual/comical look.

Depends on your overall style. The fabric may be a little thin as its not unholstery thick, however personally i think this pattern is one of the coolest i have ever seen. Its very bohemian and as i like bright and unexpected patterns and collors, ive used it in a 3-D wall hanging in my living room which also contains plum and orange curtains and a grass-green shag rug. I'd say go for it if your tastes run a little bohemian. It really is stunning fabric and is even prettier and brighter in person. You might try purchasng 1yd at first to see if it goes with your design theme

It shouldn't be a problem; the material is thick so it is easy to make it flat with no drape effect. In fact it seems to me it would be difficul to drape this in a useful fashion. Just remember that it will only be 6 feet long which is a bit short for most uses.

One or two skeins should make a typical scarf. It depends on how wide you want your scarf to be.

I actually tried doing that just for the fun of it. It COULD work... But I would recommend looking at other ones specifically made for that. Also you have to cut the white hanger strings off it attached to the red part... The material is not the same on the outside as it is on the inside (red) it's more a satin inside and velvet material on the outside. Hope this helped!

I have not had a problem using my machine for that type of fabric. I did small projects though. I would say so long as you are using the right thread, needle and tension you should be ok.
