White Jubilee Crinkle Cotton - We can't stop using this crinkle cotton, and really, there's no reason to. It's a wonder-fabric! With a soft hand and lightly crepe texture, this fabric is a step above your typical shirting fabric. And in a bright white, it will pair beautifully with practically everything. A wonderfully versatile top or dress!
Cobalt Block Print Indian Cotton - This lightweight cotton is all about the print. An Indian block print, the pattern features white circles on a cream background that fall somewhere between a floral and a tile repeat. The fabric itself is quite lightweight, making it perfect for the top or tunic options, and will be a much beloved addition to your spring and summer wardrobe!
Red Japanese Cotton Chambray - Chambray is a no brainer for this pattern - it's even used in the style photos! But we decided to go for an unexpected color in this soft red cotton. The chambray weave gives it a heathered look, and the japanese cotton makes it light and breathable. All of this combines to be a brilliant choice for a summer dress.

Easy sew

The color is amazing! Easy sew.

Comfy pullover

Easy pattern to sew and very warm. Not a flattering price but great to relax in.

Fabric quality for the boxes is excellent. Informational tutorials can be found online

Love the pattern

I love this pattern. It isn't a good one for beginners due to the lack of clear instructions. It also doesn't really tell you the width of bias binding to use -- odd! -- good thing bias tape comes in the kit. The garment itself is comfortable and flexible but the amount of fabric given seemed pretty skimpy this month.

struggling

I am not exactly a beginner but someone who needs more sewing experiences. This kit is frustrating me more than stretching me: e.g., I prefer tissue patterns for flexibility, manageability, elimination of steps (tracing); am finding red ink hard to read on the instruction; the English translation and abbreviations takes some figuring out (it can be done but why so challenging?); metric measurements also need translating (from instruction to pattern to sewing machine); the fabric is super slinky for someone still feeling her way. I could use a secondary Needle-sharp written tutorial to avoid confusion and frustration. I am only just beginning the sewing part so results remain to be seen . . .if it doesn't turn out useable I will really be ticked.
