Tuck fabric on a grid to create airy texture

Article Abstract:

Mary Ray, fabric and garment designer, created her own airy textured fabric by establishing a grid on the fabric and sewing intermittent tucks along the grid both horizontally and vertically. The textured fabric was very versatile as it could be used interestingly for garments as well as home decor depending on the kind of fabric one chose.
