Trucraft – Coloured Flat Elastic – Lilac – 25mm Wide
Soft, charming, and perfectly pastel, the Trucraft Lilac Coloured Flat Elastic is a delightful addition to any sewing repertoire. This 25mm wide elastic features a gentle lavender hue that provides a high-quality, coordinated alternative to standard utility elastics. Designed for both aesthetic appeal and structural reliability, it is the ideal choice for projects where a soft touch of color is required, whether used as a decorative exposed waistband or tucked neatly into a casing for a premium interior finish.
Supplied on a professional 10m reel, this flat elastic is engineered for a balanced, comfortable stretch. The 25mm width is widely regarded as the most versatile size for garment construction, offering enough surface area to provide a secure fit without rolling or digging into the skin. Whether you are sewing for children, creating delicate nightwear, or designing bespoke accessories, this Lilac elastic adds a polished, boutique-style finish to your handiwork.
