Sixth Challenge Winner Announced!

Congratulations, Audrey!
Audrey won (3) patterns of her choice from our online store. 
Great use of material!

What a challenge! 
Using a print, panel, and chiffon!
But our designers did an awesome job!
Unfortunately we have to send home one of our designers.
We are sad to see Shams go this week as her design had the lowest score.
She did a great job in our challenge!

Don't forget to stop in on Saturday to see what the next challenge will be!

Made By A Fabricista: Three Methods to Explore Colorblocking

Hey sewing friends! As I pondered what sort of plan to tackle for my next wintry project, a new and glorious array of rainbow Polartec fabrics filled the Fabric Mart site.

Look at this stunning heap!  When I’m sewing two different fabrics together, I prefer to use the same weight and type so that they behave similarly and hang well together. Any extra piecing like this also creates topstitching opportunities galore! (You already know I’m all about that available thread matching.) In this case, I opted for three colors in each of the two fabric varieties I mentioned above for the best combining results.  I figured I’d dive in with a brief overview of how y...

I quickly placed an order for 3.75 yards to finally make the Seamwork Bay coat I’ve been dreaming of making for a while. In addition to my Fabric Mart wool, I also ordered Kasha Satin...
