We apologize for the shift in posts, but had a few items we wanted to share before it becomes 100 degrees and these creations are a bit irrelevant {except for our readers on the other side of the world}.

There are LOADS more “Disney Inspired” outfits to come . . . so bear with us as we share a couple of garments from earlier this year. We’ll be back with some more of our fun / sewing from the most “Magical Place on Earth” by the end of next week . . .

************************************************

So, we’ve never been that “tight” with knits . . . although we have attempted to bond a bit more in recent times.

But, then we bought THIS gem of knits: Art Gallery Fabrics {by Pat Bravo}.

And, we were in love!

The quality of the knit fabric was like none other we’ve ever sewn.

It actually made sewing knits . . . wait for it . . . ENJOYABLE!

That’s right . . . you read that correctly.

It was ENJOYABLE!

Not all knit is created equal, and sewing with this quality of knit could become addicting!

It sure made us not want to sew with any other type.

For this creation, we sewed the Oliver + S, Sailboat Top, but modified it to a dress.

Perhaps we give ourselves too much credit, but the combination of fabrics reminded us of a Mini Boden look.

If we were to modify this pattern to a dress again, we would probably straighten out the hemline {instead of keeping the curve of the neckline}.

Comfort and color were two positive attributes for this creation . . . according to EA.

Looks like more sewing with knits may be in our future. And, if they are Art Gallery Fabrics, we might be able to stomach it . . . or perhaps even enjoy it!
