SJ Designs 1/16" Satin Ribbon

Update February 2026: of the two US factories making these ribbons one has closed down and the other only makes the narrow ribbons as a custom order, requiring me to purchase a full production run. I am actively searching for a new supplier but they will most likely be overseas and the ribbon will be polyester.

SJ Designs 1/16″ wide double-faced nylon satin ribbon is made in the USA. This is a true fabric ribbon with woven edges rather than the cheaper “cut-edge” ribbons made overseas. Double-faced means either side is the “right” side! These colors match the wider 1/8″ ribbon.

It’s perfect for couching on canvas but still soft and supple enough to use for embroidery. Washing the ribbon in hot water will make it even softer, and pre-washing is recommended if the ribbon will be used on an item that will be laundered frequently although shrinkage is minimal at 1-2%. It irons beautifully with steam and a press cloth.
