Fabric & notions from my shop

  • Art Gallery Fabrics Capri toile Viscose - riviera vibes with the most beautiful seaside town prints in blues and greens and interspersed with yellow lemons and the most beautiful drape that viscose is known for.
  • Lady McIlroy Sands Linen Cotton - this cotton linen mix is more medium weight and does not crease to the same degree as linen.
  • Mid Wash Chambray - mid wash is always a good shade to put on with any outfit. Chambray gives the look of denim but the feel of a light cotton.
  • Poppy Cotton Lawn - lawn is a light weight cotton that is perfect for skirts that call for movement. This print is full of beautiful reds, pinks and greens to give that summer meadow feel.
