Today post is a very quick update of my November sewing plan for make a garment a month challenge hosted by Sarah Liz. I have chosen my fabrics and pattern. It will be a long sleeves shirt with two color combination, both of the fabrics are knit cotton - deep purple color and grey printed with purple leaves.
For the pattern, I chose Burdastyle pattern - Paneled Jersey Shirt 10/2013. The instructions said that I should use jersey knit fabric only, but I think my fabric choice will be good to make the shirt too. We will see... Wish me a good luck!

Love those colours and I can't wait to see how it turns out. Are you placing the print on the outside? Or centre panel?
ReplyDeleteHi Belinda! I love those colors too very much. I am placing the print fabric on the center panel :)
DeleteHappy sewing and wish you a lovely weekend!
Thanks, you too. I have 2 new dresses to put up on flickr next week. I was wondering, how long does fabric need to be in the stash for it to qualify as a stash bust? I've been thinking about this a lot lately because I rarely buy fabric for a special purpose. I just buy when I see fabric I like, so does that mean I'm always topping up my stash?
DeleteOhh... I can not wait to see your two new dresses :) I am sure they both are pretty :)
DeleteIn my opinion and some people agree with me, I will call the fabric stash when I buy the fabric without any special purpose and stay inside stash box minimum 3 months.
And you are not alone, I am trying to control my self from buying new fabrics but I can not. So, my stashes are growing and some of the fabrics are in the bottom line for more than three years. That's scary!
Hana, I love your fabrics.. This will be a really cute top.. Can't wait to see it..Happy sewing.

DeleteHi Hana, I've been away for a few days, so have just got to your post. The fabrics are gorgeous, and I think they will work well for the top. And stash does grow and grow - the more you try and stop, the more it grows :)
ReplyDeleteHi Liz, glad that you are back. I hope you had a lovely time with your family. I have done my top yesterday and I'll post it here after I take pictures. And you are right, the more I try and stop built up my stash, the more it grows. Hehehe....
