Can’t wait 🧵

Lovely colour however haven’t done anything to it yet, loaded up with too many projects! 🤪 Fabric has been washed, pattern picked out - leggings, n ready to sew. I’m thinking will the fabric be too hot for summer?

Perfect swimsuit fabric

I made a long sleeve one-piece for surfing with this fabric and the fabric was exactly what I was looking for. It feels very nice and soft on the skin but has the perfect thickness to it and the colour is beautiful.

Eco leggings

For someone who usually avoids synthetic fabrics, I am excited to make be making new Pilates leggings from recycled drink bottles. The ‘aloe’ colour appears bluer, more ‘teal’ coloured in real life, which was a bonus.

Great quality fabric for leggings. I love the colour. There is a slight sheen on one side but it’s very hard to differentiate between the “right” and “wrong” side. I’ll be purchasing more in a different colour. Thanks for the fabulous service and great selection of fabrics
