I mentioned earlier that my ASG Neighborhood Group went to Pursley's in Duncanville, Texas. We generally make this shopping trip once/year as a group. It's about a 45-60 minute drive from our small town. I sometimes make the trip alone or with my bestest sewing buddy in between our yearly excursion.
Here's what I found for my one seam (Butterick knockoff (see earlier post) using my Louise Cutting pattern) capris. By the way, they are almost complete. I did hit one snag, but I'll explain when I show you photos when they are done.
The color (which isn't showing well on the monitor) is almost a denim blue. I bought all that was left - about 3+ yards. It is very wide so I have plenty of fabric for something else later on. I think this was $3.98/yd.
I also picked up some tulle type soft knits that I thought would work with some of the Marcy Tilton tee patterns. The first two: black tool with a small dot; the other is a lace with black, blues, and purples (sorry you can't see the colors here). The last one is a fuzzy stripe - black. I've washed/dried them all and they did great.
And lastly, I picked up these "jewels" that can be used on necklines. Three of them were priced at 3.98 each; and one was $4.98. Good price for sure! DGD will likely be the recipient of one or two of these on T-shirts. We'll see, but I just couldn't pass them up. Sorry the pics are blurry.
As a P.S., the horse pasture was baled this week:
I love the neckline "jewels"...I don't know what else to call them, collars? They have a few in my local fabric store and every time I see them I think...yeah...I need that!!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! I'm going to have to bother you soon and get a list of the great fabric shops over your way, since it seems all my old haunts are on the other side of the Metroplex (and many closed, too) from where I am now.
ReplyDeleteFantastic haul!
