Your fabric selections are always so pretty. Happy sewing! 🧵
Serious fabric envy here!! Fantastic buys and such amazing value. Really hope you can make the most of your sewing time. Happy Sewing 😊. Lynne
Amazing fabrics! I’ve always been so curious about that “travel jersey” so I’m very keen to see how you get on with it? Best of luck with the olives!!!
Great fabrics, I’m so jealous of you fabulous fabrics from the Netherlands! You mentioned a pants pattern and I don’t quite understand what you’re saying, you’re going to use for several of the knits you bought. Also check out this nice knit cardigan Free pattern from Seamwork called Lisa, it’s quite nice! Thanks for sharing
Pomona pants by Anna Allen Clothing
You must be so happy to be home Marissa, loved seeing your travel adventures. Love the travel jersey print. Looks like a work dress to me😂❤ .
Hello! I am SO happy to be home - I really live in paradise 😁Thank you so much for watching the videos!
Lovely fabric choices...i look forward to seeing what you sew with them 😊
Thank you so much - I am already getting lots of fabrics cut out ready for lots of sewing!
Lovely fabric haul…….i also order fabric from driesenstofen. And yes like you I ordered before the sales😢….so tempted to order more 😂❤😊
Ha ha glad I am not alone in my bad timing but honestly I have such a massive pile of fabric I am (for the first time ever) not tempted to buy more 😂
I wonder if the plain brown fabric could be made into trousers only with the brushed side inside for cozy warmth and the faint stripes on the other side going length wise with pant legs? Winter dress pants?
Oddly there is no stripe on the 'wrong' side, it is kinda scratchy. Could be a nice lining with the scratchy side on the on the inside? Hmmm, will have to think about it
Lovely series - thank you for taking us on your travels with you 😀🧵
Thank you for joining me it was such fun and brought some fun into an otherwise boring work trip!
Lovely shopping and plans. Love hearing about your travels and olives!
Thank you for watching! I am SO excited to harvest the olives this year, after several bad years it is exciting to see the trees full and harvesting in nice weather is just the best!
😂 I just printed and cut out the pattern for the Heather sweater 😂 really have enjoyed watching your travels
Thank you so much for watching, it has been so fun making these videos! I am excited to print out this sweater pattern as well!
Thanx for showing all the eye candy. So fun! Can't wait for part 2.
Thank you so much for watching!
Such totally unique fabrics Marissa. Looking forward to your makes. Hope you feel better. Colds on trips are a bummer!!!
Thank you! I am lucky that I got over the cold fast!
Amazing haul. Some unique finds indeed. Broccoli fabric- who knew??? Fantastic value and I think you were very restrained. Enjoy sewing it all up. 😊 Lynne
Ha ha thank you for your kind comments about my restraint 😂 I better get sewing!
Unreal haul!! You’re so right to buy elastic in bulk! I always need it, and very have it 😂😂😂 That blue floral fabric is stunning and the broccoli is just hilarious! I think you were right to not take 3m 😂😂😂
Thank you so much! Yep 3 meters of broccoli fabric would be another challenge in itself in terms of coming up with things to make with it 😂
There is always some fun fabric at China World. A couple of years ago I bought Christmas fabric - Brussel spouts with reindeer antlers and a red nose.
As a Brussel sprout lover I so wish I had seen this fabric 😂 thank you so much again for spending some of your remaining time with me. Safe travels to the cold tomorrow!
Sure enjoy your hauls and pictures of your makes….. but Please tell us the cost in US dollars! Thanks.
Hello! Apologies, the Euro and Dollar are very similar at the moment!
The markets were amazing! So many things I wanted to get :). Can't wait to see your makes with your choices
Thank you, what a wonderful experience it was being in some many fun shops! I can't wait to get sewing!
Well! That was a whole bunch of fun!!! I felt a bit overwhelmed looking at alllll that fabric in the store! Woooowwwww!! You picked some beauties and I'm keen to see what you make with them. Yes, that Japanese cotton was glorious. Definitely a special piece. Looking forward to part 2 x
Yep it is 100% overwhelming for sure, luckily I am quite decisive but I can imagine for those that are not it would be hell 😂
@ haha that’s why I actually prefer to shop online!!
Great vlog, so nice to see all that fabric. You picked some beauties.
Thank you so much!
Wow what a great load of beautiful fabrics….loved seeing the local market…..thank you for a great vlog ❤😊
Thank you so much for watching! The fabric shopping make a long work trip tolerable 😂
Wow wonderful stuff.
Thank you!
Wow what a beautiful fabrics ❤ I think I would be totally lost with all the options,you did well though 👍❤
Thank you, yes there were SO many options!
Wow! I don’t know how you were able to choose from all of the choices! Great finds ❤
Yep, it was slightly random my choices but such fun being surrounded by so many lovely fabrics!
@ You did great! Happy you were able to stock up on the notions as well. I can’t wait to see what you make with all of the goodies 😊
I am curious to know how much it will cost you for flying the extra suitcase back 😄🤫🤔
I have 40kg checked luggage so no need to buy any extra luggage!
Nice hail! You were just about to say something about the only fabric store near you but you got cut off towards the end of your video. Would you mind saying which fabric store it is? I'm in Tuscany and I'm always looking for new resources. Grazie mille
Hello! There is a massive fabric warehouse in Marsiano, Umbria!
Wow! You made out well. You are going to be very busy when you get home. Glad you're having a good trip. Suzanne
Thank you Suzanne! I can't wait to get sewing!
Goodness looking at all that fabric I don’t know how you decide what to buy🤷♀️I’d be there all day procrastinating haha! X
Now that I have all this fabric home I realize I have a lot of sewing to do 😂
Thank you for showing us all the stalls in Bangkok your purchases look fab 😊
Thank you for watching!
Get some rest. 😉 Thank you for the travel shopping vlog. 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for watching, can't wait to make the Bangkok video 😀
Little India and Arab Street have great fabric .
Annoyingly I suspect I will miss these but the trouble is I know how much cheaper the fabric is in Bangkok as well so holding out!
OK< first things first...YES! 12 hour sewing marathon. Especially since you sew a lot of knit items...you'd get soooo much done! Also, fabric mall!!! I hope you took pictures! Regarding Spotlight, sounds like they charge Australian prices! When I was in Australia and went to Spotlight back in March/April I was horrified by the price of fabric but then I remembered that the Aus$$ is $0.60 of the US$...perhaps Singaporean dollar is about the same. Such a bummer. Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful time shopping and that your work goes well. Excited to see/hear all about it. Glad you're feeling better also. x
I think you are right about the prices, 1.50 Singapore dollars is 1 Euro. Anyway I am holding out for Bangkok although this afternoon o had some spare time and found a fabric shop selling Japanese cotton so i picked up a couple items 😂 can't wait to make the next fabric haul video 😂
Lovely to hear about the Singapore shopping and the further fabric hauls.. The dress pattern is lovely….😊🇦🇺
Thank you! It is fun buying the fabric and making the videos 😂
Indigo lotus flower block print cotton fabric is amazing!!! It makes a super kaftan style dress or blouse for the hot, humid weather you are experiencing on your work trips. The other blue fabric would be great as a layering piece, perhaps an oversized shirt or open shawl collar, robe style to wear open over a tank or T-shirt. Also good for your travels when it's hot outside but sometimes chilly in offices or restaurants. Travel always plays havoc with my immune system. I take handsanitizer and masks with me in planes, crowded buses, trains, etc. I might look paranoid but I just hate wasting Mt vacation time being unwell. Sometimes, despite best efforts I end up sick. 🤞you bounce back quickly
You are not alone in these precautions (mask and sanitizer) and I should apply this theory as well as being sick away from home is the worst! I am healthy again and looking forward to lots of shopping in Bangkok on Sunday! Thank you for the brilliant suggestions with the fabric!
WHAT - an indoor mall with only fabric …. Thats really the place for going shopping crazy 😂
I know, it is amazing! Will record footage for sure!
Looking forward to seeing your Bangkok haul! The fat quarters are lovely and I love the look of that dress! X
Thank you!!! Need to figure out what to make with the fat quarters...I am great at buying these cottons but not great at sewing them up 😂
Interesting travels. I enjoy watching from a far! I recently watched a 12 hour sewing marathon vlog and the sewist made 4 complete garments. I was impressed. I never like to cut out too many project at once in fear I never finish them. For me cutting out is my least favorite part of sewing as I am very... lets say particular. LOL. Currently I have 1 pair of lander pants cut out and I had sized down to fit at the time and now I think they may not fit. So I will wait until my current fitness regime starts to pay off and then finish them. I do love the Georgia Tee by Elizabeth Suzanne which is a woven top I can make in 1 m of fabric. Love it in light weight linen or lawn. I think you would like that pattern. It use to be free but I'm not sure now. Can't wait to hear more on your travels and purchases.
You are not alone in the dislike of cutting out but I actually don't mind it but can get carried away cutting loads out. I need to try Lander pants as well, they looks amazing! I wish I could actually implement a good fitness regime, I joined a gym and love going but these travels seem to get in the way! I am hoping to spend the next 4 months at home with no traveling!
Ooo can’t wait your fabric shopping in Bangkok ❤❤ I have made those McCalls wide leg trousers and I they are my favorite summer bottoms airy and comfortable
This is great to hear about the pants! I am so excited to make them!
Oooh 12 hrs sewing challenge!!! Im up for that. I've done it in the past when I cut out 20+ projects into project bags. In an insane attempt to destash fabric. Actually amazed how it all came together. Black thread pile, white thread pile. All the shoulder seams, all the side seams etc. I'm was surprised nothing got mixed up.
Yep I am super excited about doing this actually!
Enjoy your shopping!
Thank you!
Oh you don’t sound well!! Hope you’re not struggling too much! Wow you picked up some amazing fabric. I’ve never seen anything like them!!! Safe onwards travels!!
Thank you! Healthy again and ready to shop in Bangkok on Sunday...I have an empty duffel bag to fill after all 😂
Hi. Thanks for showing us your lovely new fabrics. Exposure to different fabrics is one of the perks of travelling, unfortunately getting sick is the big downside. Look after yourself and I hope you feel better soon.
Thank you! Already feeling better and looking forward to more shopping in Singapore tomorrow 😂 hope you are well!!
Fabrics are great! Feel better soon🙂
Thank you! Feeling better already...the fabric shopping in each city is the only thing keeping me going 😂
I hope you get to feeling better soon. It was fun to see the fabrics you have found. Be sure to get rest after being up all night. You don’t want to get more sick.
Thank you so much! I have been sitting on my bum all weekend and although bored senseless I feel I should feel better tomorrow - fingers crossed! Thank you so much for watching!
Thanks for sharing these super interesting and unusual fabrics. Take care of yourself. You know the drill; hydrate, sleep, zinc, tea with honey and lemon.
Thank you - excellent advice which I have implemented this weekend and am starting to feel a bit better!
Use the fluffy side! And I loved the spider fabric 😊
So glad there are other spider fabric fans out there 😂 Thank you!
Lovely fabric choices 😊 I hope you are feeling better soon...
Thank you so much! Feeling slightly better after resting for a couple of days!
Aw not nice feeling Ill when your away from home…..fabrics are gorgeous look forward to seeing your makes…get well soon ❤😊
You are right about it not being fun feeling ill when not home. I do a terrible job looking after myself when I travel for work but I realize that now 🤣 Thanks for watching!
Awesome fabric finds! Hope you feel better soon ❤
Thank you so much!
Great finds! So much to choose from. Thanks
Thank you!
