Meanwhile more fabric, another linen blend, Nature Botanical, I rather fancy making this into a maxi skirt.
Seamstar is well stocked with a good variety of quilting cottons and alternative dressmaking fabrics like lawns and the lovely linens. including Meadow Purple ( I have used this to make a blouse in the past, lovely, like Liberty lawn!)
and Seashell, love the blue and orange combo.
There is a rather excellent section, the Fabulous Forgotten Fabrics with some little gems hiding away inside including this beautiful nostalgic sewing print from Anna Griffin, very cute!
there are handy links all over the site including some useful resources like the fabric cutting guide below.
Handy, so look for links and places to click, there are lots of resources and help for you, the perfect colour matching page is excellent- click on the colours to find out. Courtney is currently adding more to the website and blog over the next few months so you may want to sign up for her newsletter to keep up to date with additions.

I couldn't resist a hint of Christmas with this lovely cuddly flannel, practically begging to be the backing on a Christmas quilt. I am looking forward to my monthly visits to Seamstar!
I can fully endorse the Fiskars soft touch spring scissors too! I've had my pair for ten years or so and not only are they comfy, they DO stay sharp. Seamstar's visual cutting guide is really lovely.
ReplyDeleteThat is a GREAT visual cutting guide.
