This video reviews all of the different Round 14 fabric bases: 

 

 

This video discusses why I print some of the fabrics on the cross grain:

 

Sew Dynamic Fabric Bases:

Athletic French Terry US (grainline):
📝Athletic French Terry is smooth on the front side, with small/fine loops on the back. This fabric is drapey and I would describe it as a french terry version of brushed jersey.
❗ Please note AFT has small runs along one selvage. For the most part they are entirely in the selvage, but they can go into the print by 1-2". The price reflects this known flaw.
♻️ 22.5 recycled plastic bottles per yard
🇺🇸 This fabric is milled and printed in the US
92% REPREVE® polyester; 8% Spandex
290 gsm
58" wide
30% horizontal; 25% vertical stretch
Recommended Uses: hoodies, joggers, jackets, and shorts.

Brushed Jersey (grainline):
📝Brushed Jersey is smooth on the front side, but is brushed on the wrong side. The brushed side gives it a warm-hand. It has a jersey construction, therefore less recovery and compression than an athletic knit fabric.
♻️ 17.5 recycled plastic bottles per yard
🇺🇸 This fabric is milled and printed in the US
92% REPREVE® polyester; 8% Spandex
230 gsm
Moisture Wicking treatment added
58" wide
75%/50%, 4-way stretch
Recommended Uses: tops, dresses, skirts, shorts, joggers, and hoodies.

Tech Jersey (grainline):
📝Tech Jersey is smooth on both sides, but not slick like Athletic Knit. It has more of a matte finish and is less shinny.  It's light with good drape.
90%Recycled Polyester; 10%Elastane 
200 gsm
Moisture Wicking and anti-pilling
60" wide
50%, 4-way stretch
UPF rating 50+
Oeko Tex Standard 100 Certified
Recommended Uses: tops, dresses, skirts, shorts, rompers, half and full zip shirts, golf/tennis shirts, and underwear.


Athletic Knit (AK) 265 (cross grain):
📝AK 265 is smooth on both sides, and has a cold hand. This fabric is printed on the cross grain.
♻️ 16.7 recycled plastic bottles per yard
83% REPREVE® polyester; 17% Spandex
265 gsm
Moisture Wicking treatment added
58" wide
75%, 4-way stretch
UPF 50+
Oeko Tex Standard 100 Certified
Recommended Uses: Leggings, sports bras, shorts, dresses, hoodies, jackets and joggers.


Athletic Brushed Poly (cross grain):
📝ABP is brushed on both sides, and has a warm hand. This fabric is printed on the cross grain.
♻️ 16.7 recycled plastic bottles per yard
83% REPREVE® polyester; 17% Spandex
265 gsm
58" wide
70%, 4-way stretch
Oeko Tex Standard 100 Certified
Recommended Uses: Leggings, sports bras, shorts, dresses, hoodies, jackets and joggers. Keep in mind the ABP is brushed and can feel warm. In hot climates, I recommend AK 265 instead of ABP for work out attire. The brushing also gives it less drape. For dresses, I would stick with body con or circle skirts and not gathers.

DriRelease (grainline):
❗ Please note the Drirelease coloring is not as saturated as the other fabric bases. It has a more muted, vintage look. Please see pictures.
📝Drirelease is a light weight fabric. It is soft, has good drape and not clingy. This fabric is printed on the grain line.
82% recycled polyester; 11% Tencel; 7% Elastine
215 gsm
60" wide
40% horizontal stretch and 25% vertical stretch
Oeko Tex Standard 100 Certified
Recommended Uses: Tshirts, dresses, shorts, skirts, and lounge pants. Please keep the stretch % in mind when choosing patterns, you may need to size up.
