I went fabric shopping...again. This is what I found: light blue/white "fine" cotton pique floral print, black/beige striped linen, black wool (super drapey & soft), and a navy blue/brown/raspberry/beige cotton sateen stretch print. Atleast 3 of the 4 fabrics I purchased are summer-weight fabrics. I am getting better. I couldn't pass up the black wool (remnant)...it was sooooo soft.I also came across the following pieces on the clearance table: Black/gray/white striped, purple/dark gray striped, and red/gold window-paned fabrics. These appear to be microfiber and very drapey. I immediately thought about making some shirts or tops with these.
I pre-washed gentle cycle, the Donna Karan linen (previous post) and the black/beige striped linen and very lightly dried in the dryer. Yes, they are machine washable and the results....they came out very soft.
So, what am I going to do with all this fabric? I guess we'll have to wait and see...
Happy Memorial Day!
