Fabric for Dresses

We have just added some new fabric to the shop - some that would be perfect for dresses.

Check out this striped matte jersey - we are selling this great black and white striped fabric - $10 gets you 2 (60″ by 4 yard) pieces.

Click on the fabric for a larger image.

We think this would make a great dress or a skirt but we would love to see what you would make.

Totally Tubular - What do you do with a tube of fabric?

We have just added a most interesting find to the shop - a few yards of a seamless knit tube in a black and white herringbone print. We have done some searching but can’t seem to find out where one buys tubular fabric. What do you make with tubular fabric - it is perfect for a knit dress. Has anyone ever seen a pattern for a tube of fabric?

Needlepoint is Expensive, Vintage Needlepoint is Not

tgyebay-012.jpg

This is a cool needlepoint kit - I think the colors are really great - very vibrant for your basic farm house scene.
This includes the canvas and yarn - a great deal. I have just started to needle point again and a trip to the local needlpoint shop, I should probably say boutique could send you in to serious debt. There wasn’t a canvas in the place larger than a Christmas ornament that cost less than $50. That doesn’t even include the yarn.

I think the yarn included is 100% wool.

The printed area measures about - 10″ wide by ” high
