All those fabrics are so beautiful, but I really enamored with the black velvet circle one; it’s so unique! I think a simple long duster will really showcase that fabric and it will be a piece that will “kick up a notch “ any outfit you throw it over.😊
Hi Sharon! Happy to see you again here and excited to sew up your new fabrics. when I saw your pink and gray plaid fabric at the end of your video, I immediately thought of the new McCall's 8529! It's a Chanel like dress and I think it would work well with that fabric. Very Classic and Chic with Audrey Hepbern vibes. As for the textured silver grey rose like fabric, how about making a simple topper that could pair with that plaid rose fabric? A simple topper/cardigan to wear with that dress or any other outfit you like. You can get some great mileage with that piece. Thanks as always for the inspiration 🥰🥰🥰 Happy Sewing!
I, like you, love unusual textured fabric and that grey ribbon fabric is gorgeous. Hard to decide and a shift dress as said previously would work but I would consider a bomber jacket - I like mixing unusual combinations of practical and fancy in garment and fabric but that’s not everyone’s taste. Worth considering though as it may get more wear than a dress. I’m thinking of trying this combination in this beautiful organza I was given, it’s not totally opaque so would need lining but I never know how to use organza (& not my favourite to sew!) as my lifestyle doesn’t warrant the usual type 15:24 of garment and it’s so ‘bouncy’ so I don’t know if it would work as a bomber jacket, what do you think. Loved seeing your fabrics and glad just being in the midst of fabrics has brought your spark back. It’s been a tough time. Your family memories of Sesame Street has resonated too, my adult children still talk about their own favourite - it’s another family memory to cherish.
I think so too! And you know the only reason I even did this video was because you left a comment saying you wanted to see what I bought it SR Harris 😂 One of these times I will get to visit Minnesota without an urgent family situation and we will shop together at SR 😀
All those fabrics are gorgeous! My favorites are the pink quilted and the black velvet circles! I’d make the cape out of the velvet! That would be soooooo pretty!
On pale pink rectangular fabric, can you use both sides? When I’ve lost creative mojo, well, I go shop around and try to get inspired😁 Im about to lose one of my fav fabric stores that’s easy to drive to and I’ve been going there for over 20 years! The owner is retiring🥲 I’ve heard you rave about SRHarris for years and this fabric haul makes me want to field-trip there with sewing friends!!!!
Yes, let the fabric sing! I have to look through my patterns as I’m not positive if I have a fabric, but there might be a way I could make it work. Thank you!
The gray ribbon fabric would make a great bolero jacket. The pink plaid could be a holiday skirt that you wear with a silver or white top and silver pumps.
The tunic, Vogue 9330, I saw a RTW version with 3 pockets, then an indie company released a version with3 pockets, so that’s what I’m doing this fall, among all the other things. For the pink plaid. Or anything that strikes your fancy, I’m no help, I see. 😂
😂😂😂 Oooo! That sounds interesting, do you remember which Indy pattern company it was? I’m having a hard time envisioning where the three pockets are located.
The ribbon fabric would make a great bomber.
The fabric you bought is very pretty. You smile when it's in your hands!
Love the Cape!❤
Sharon, if you have fabric leftover, you could make hats to match your coats. That would be elegant.
The ribbon fabric would make a really cool vest. I like the vogue top for the pink fabric.
I LOVE your vlogs - lively , fun, upbeat and fast moving.
Pink fabric would be a cute bomber jacket too
Long skirt for ribbon fabric 😊
Not too boring! 😂
Awesome , I love capes 🎉
Good thing you got new fabric. The old fabric was getting lonely.
😂🤣😂
I like the cape idea!❤

Like the ribbon fabric in a bolero, or long line vest, the plaid in a toaster sweater

Hi Sharon the fabrics are absolutely gorgeous. I love the velvet prints.
A schacket would be so sweet in that pink plaid!! Yeah!!!
An idea I had not even thought of. Thanks!

How about a sweatshirt dress for the plaid knit? For example Style Arc Anderson, or even the Love Notions Aurora.
That circle velvet is dying to be a cape!
I think so too!

Us shopping together would be dangerous 😂

Oh, such fun fabrics! Happy sewing!
Thank you! 😊
Ribbon fabric would make a cute Chanel/bouclé style jacket with french seams then no lining would be needed.
For the steel gray ribbon fabric. Just a simple shift dress would be perfect and let the fabric sing!!

Both of those are great ideas. Thank you!
I agree that the ribbon fabric will look wonderful as a short over layer, specifically as Cashmerette Club Catskills jacket or Carol shrug.
How about a cape with the plaid.
Last pattern for pale pink plaid 😊😅

@ I found it! The Sew Different Cassatt dress. Not necessarily the style lines,but 3 pockets in a row…..I ❤️ pockets!
Double layer that too sheer fabric. It will still look great
