Real buyer feedback from Nicole's Etsy shop. Verified purchases only.
Gorgeous fabric, very carefully packaged and I am a very happy repeat customer.
Item was exactly as described and arrived sooner than expected. I would most certainly recommend them to anyone.
Took a while to ship but not a problem because it was not late, and because I live on the west coast so it came ASAP
Beautiful silky quality just exactly as described. It is a perfect item to work into my project. I will definitely visit this shop again.
Beautiful lightweight fabric of real silk. I washed it before sewing with Woolite in a machine. It came out with no shrinkage or skewing. Will be buying more in the future.
Perfect for my project, exactly as described and as in the picture
Perfect transaction. Real China silk, not poly as so many seem to be. I like to do business with this vendor.
So happy to have found your shop. Fast shipping. Good selection. Thank you.
Fast Shipping and I love the silk. Will be ordering again soon. <3
