Description

This lightweight cotton percale features a charming floral print with vibrant pinks, soft creams, and teal accents set against a natural base. The crisp, breathable weave makes it perfect for warm weather garments—flowing dresses, blouses, and skirts that move beautifully while keeping you cool. 

Wash between 30 and 60 degrees. Washing at a higher temperature may cause more shrinkage and print fade.
