This velvet family is generally made up of cotton.
But there are also polyester and mixture of compositions.
These velvet, in addition to having a velvety and brilliant touch, have a textured structure.
We see, on the side in the place, lines drawn by weaving.
Generally, ribbed velvet have fewer lines or ribs per square meter than 500 rays or milleraies.
They therefore have wider and therefore more visible, more marked ribs. These fabrics have good hold and are generally quite heavy.
The ribs that text the 500 rays velvet are less wide than ribbed velvet.
These are generally average tissues.
Milleraie velvet or 1000 rays are made up of lines, scratches or ribs much thinner than the previous 2.
We say 1000 rays because they would be made up of 1000 stripes per meter. Have you ever counted?
These are more flexible fabrics, in which you can sew a multitude of projects.
It all depends on the holding of the desired fabric for the project.
Opt for a ribbed velvet For a sewing project that requires structure and some outfit, For example :
- Boasts of overalls
- Chasuble dresses patterns
- Sleeveless vests bosses
- Boss of bags, accessories, backpacks ...
- Pants patterns
- Jacket patterns
- Straight skirt patterns
- Decoration, furnishings ...
And many other sewing ideas!
If you choose a velvet 500 rays, you can sew exactly the same sewing projects, but you will give them an effect with less outfit.
Regarding milleraies, they are generally more flexible, so you can sew, in addition to previously cited ideas, sewing projects such as blouses and shirts, less structured dresses, more flexible jackets and more fluid pants.
It all really depends on the coupon, each fabric has its own specificities!

As with velvet in general, one of the most important parameters to take into account is the sense of cutting.
Especially since these velvet has scratches visible on the texture of the fabric.
In fact, in order to carry out a clean and neat couture project, it is better, beforehand, place all your pieces of patterns in the same direction on your fabric.
Otherwise, there may be differences in the direction of the shine of your velvet once all your parts are assembled.
For coastal velvet with large ribs, in particular, make sure to make your connections, as on the fabrics which include striped patterns.
If you wish, of course, you can also have fun on the meaning of the fabric, depending on the desired rendering.
Always make machine sewing samples on your fabric falls to properly adjust the point and the tension of the foot (which can mark on fabrics like velvet).
