    First of all, I didn't even know Fabric Mart had any patterns. I always look at/buy the fabrics. (I suppose I should browse some more!) Secondly, I LOVE LOVE LOVE that pencil skirt pattern... If I don't win the give-away, I will have to make room in my budget for it.

    I love how you display the fabrics on line. Your women staff are so helpful, answering questions like" Will this fabric look good with this other fabric?" or "Which of these three wools has the softer hand?" Today I'm going to call to see if they can find a lace to cover spots on a dress.

    I think I entered this giveaway? But, I did not understand what to do when I clicked on "shop Fabric Mart", so I think I messed up . I wrote in the box that I was confused .It seemed to accept that. But I guess I should have written in what I liked. I liked Julie's selection best.

Made By A Fabricista: Just Wear It Out!

By
Originally I wasn’t happy with my make this time around. I put it on fresh off the sewing machine and didn’t love how it fit. My elastic was slightly too narrow for what the pattern called for. I did end up putting a stitch to close up the v-neck on the top. I thought my sewing on the waistband looked sloppy and I looked kind of frumpy in the outfit. I was going to put the project down to fix later but decided to wear it out for some feedback from our web manager and one of the describers.  I ended up pleasantly surprised! The fabric is super comfortable and I felt really good wearing it. All the things I didn’t like kind of melted away wearing it out. The flaws were so small that only I noticed them. I think it’s important to remember that while striving for perfect seams and flawless construction is good, a handmade garment doesn’t have to be perfect to be wearable. This isn’t the first time I’ve softened on a garment after wearing, and it certainly won’t be the last! The 100% c...

Made By A Fabricista: The Sheer Volume Of It All!

By
This garment was inspired by a dress I saw in an ad, and when I went to purchase it (which I rarely do)…I realized that the dress didn’t come in my size. Ticked off and with $300 back in my pocket, I decided to draft it myself. The description listed the fabrication as a silk cotton voile, so I used that as a starting point to recreate the simple yet elegant silhouette.  My drafting experience is limited; I’ve only ever made garments that are pleated rectangles that fit into an elasticated waist. No darts, no complicated calculations, and definitely no sleeves. But I’d have that dress if it’s the last thing I do! I made a drawing, created a Pinterest board to document my inspiration, and narrowed down the features I really wanted to have: billowy bubble-hemmed bishop sleeves (say it three times fast!), a fitted and lined bodice, and a gathered tiered skirt. Finally, it was time to shop for fabric. I knew I wanted a silk blend of some kind, without breaking the bank. For weeks, I ke...
