I got this gorgeous new fabric!It's lining so wouldn't really be suitable for a dress as it would be too thin.
So I'm thinking what to do with it!
Some bunting would be nice.
Some lightweight shopping bags.
Cushions maybe.
A new petticoat from the blue and red polka dot fabric would be lovely but would take a bit more time.
I have quite a lot of it as I bought all that was left on the roll.
8 metres of the stripy material and 3 of the polka dot.
Any suggestions?
Oh wow this is gorgeous...was it from the market by any chance?
ReplyDeleteI like your ideas for cushions and you could difinitely make some cute reversible shopping bags. The lightness of the fabric might also make a nice vintage-inspired blouse...I am a bit obsessed with blouses at the moment though ;o)
Hi Marie,
ReplyDeleteA blouse would be fantastic but unfortunatly it's polyester lining so I don't think it would feel nice which is a shame. I'd love some fabric like this in a better quality though.a silk would be fantastic.
It was from the market but I don't think he has any left as I bought both rolls but it's always worth a try.How is your sew along going?
Oh, if it's polyester than you're right...a blouse would definitely be a bad idea :o( Regarding the sewalong, I'm ready to start sewing with my actual fashion fabric this weekend! Casey is having a virtual swing dress party on Tuesday, where people will get to unveil their versions! If I work fast and I'm lucky...I just might get to join in!!!
