This just in: Everything

New Lillestoff Collage 2

It took me all day by jove but the mega haul of majestic gloriousness I received yesterday has now been added to the shop! Except the ribbons, I'll need to do that tomorrow.  Unlike previously, I'm not going to run through each one individually as there are too many and that would be tedious for you, but go have a look for yourselves!  Interesting (for me) thematic changes from previous orders:
  • Greys! Not come across a lot of grey fabrics before and suddenly there's heaps. I approve.
  • New palettes: Quite a few have also introduced shades of coral and seafoam green that while very popular in the American fabric world are not something I've seen a lot of in the Euro fabric world.  Other zeitgeisty things: Triangles! Pseudo-ombre! Scribbles!
Now that we have gotten our intellect-thinking out of the way, thar be dragons!

  2. Lovely! Love your skater dress pattern as well, and are very tempted to buy as it would be perfect I'm sure for my 3yr old. But I only have a normal sewing machine not an over-locker. Would it be possible to make the dress using a jersey on a normal modern sewing machine? Thanks.

    1. Yes! It's completely possible to sew the skater dress on a normal machine and I include a lot of tips about how to do it. The only thing you definitely need are needles for stretch fabric.

  4. Great fabrics all around. I love the raindrops. Do they have it in another color way with a bit less pink?

    1. I'm afraid that's the only colourway for the raindrops, Stacey! There is another raindrop-esque fabric from Lillestoff that I didn't order (as it coordinates with a print I don't have) with blues and greens but I can't see it in their shop at the moment. I'll see if i can find a link for you!
