 Hi you guys! I'm Lindsay. Welcome back to my channel, Inside the Hymn. You guys responded overwhelmingly positively to the last haul video that I did. So I decided haul videos are coming to the channel. So I'm back with another one today. This is from Fabric Mart and I have to tell you, remember the beginning of the year whenever I posted about how to sew on a budget? This is probably one of the most affordable way to buy patterns and fabric that I have ever come across. And it is the Fabric Mart Pre-Cut Kit. So basically they take a pattern, they match it with a suitable fabric, cut the fabric into a predetermined amount based on the sizing and like the type of garment that it is, package it all together and sell it to you as a kit. And then once in a while they put these kits on sale for 60% off. Like I'm not even kidding, it is like yardage of fabric and a pattern, sometimes big four patterns, sometimes indie patterns for four dollars, six dollars. I mean I don't think I've ever seen one definitely not up to 10 dollars, maybe eight is the most I've ever seen. So I got five garment kits for 45 dollars shipped. Okay, so just brace yourselves. So I just wanted to really quickly go double check and see if they were still on sale. It looks like they are but only for 50% off. So still a great deal. If the ones that I'm about to mention are still available, I will link them in the description box below where you can go grab them for 50% off. Okay, so the very first one is this package, which includes simplicity 2774, which is a jersey, I guess like fit and flare with a v-neck or has like a little like, I don't know, slit opening type of thing in there. Super cute. It's from the Kalia Ali collection. So it's a designer simplicity pattern. Great. And I want to say I want to see how current this is. So it's from 2008. So not a super recent pattern, but I mean it's definitely a cute style that's like not super, super trendy. In fact, this one with the sleeves is like really on trend now. So I'm probably going to make Vue which is the knee length with the kind of wider flutter sleeves and the slit opening versus the v-neck. That's the version I really like. But it came with what was that 2774. Yeah, it came with this rayon Lycra jersey, which in this beautiful eggplant color, I'm hoping it shows up on camera. It's like the darkest, deepest purple. It almost looks black, but once you get it in the light, it looks really, really nice. It's a little bit substantial for a jersey. I don't know if that's the Lycra content in it or what, but it is, I mean, look how, I don't even know how many yards of this I got. But it must be, I mean, because this comes with a maxi. So did they give me like four yards? Probably. So I can make that dress plus a really beautiful t-shirt out of this as well. You can see it has beautiful drape. Again, like they've matched it to the pattern so you know that it's going to work with the pattern that they gave you. But there is a ton of yardage here, like so much. I'm going to be able to make multiple garments with this. For this individual one, I paid $7.20 for four yards of fabric and a simplicity designer pattern. So there you go. So that's kit number one. It really is a beautiful color. It'll show up better maybe in photos after I make it. You guys will have to take a look at that, but I cannot wait. And a gray on dress. Oh, it's going to be perfect. Going to be perfect. Okay, so the next one is Soaholics Gabriola skirt. And I've been eyeing this. They've had a couple of kits that featured this Soaholic skirt. Let me try and keep these organized. So the Gabriola skirt is this one that has the description on the pattern is flared, unlined maxi skirt, set to the natural waistline with flattering seam lines and center back zipper closure. Your choice of single button or hook and bar closure on the waistband. View A and B are full length. View B features contrast waistband and yoke panels. So this is super, super flattering with those different panels. I don't think I would do contrasting panels because I don't need to draw attention to that area, but I do love the shaping that it will provide. So with that came this rayon shali. I'm 99% sure just by touching it. Yeah, rayon shali. I paid $7.20 for this kit. You know, the Soaholic patterns, did they have the price on here? They're like $15 or $20. And, you know, those indie patterns hardly ever go on really deep discount. Okay, so the rayon shali, you guys. So it is kind of reminds me of the calf tan, the Charlie calf tan I just made. But this is a very silky rayon shali. Can you see the print? It's kind of like an all over. I don't know. Is it animal print or tie dye? How is it reading to you guys? It has, you know, grays and blacks with this ever so subtle, subtle, subtle kind of like green tone to it. Oh my gosh, it's gorgeous. Can we just talk about the weight of it and the drape of it? Wow, it feels so soft. It literally feels like silk. I wonder how it is going to wash up. I'm not sure, but it's kind of like an abstract print, which is kind of cool for a maxi skirt like that because you're most likely going to pair this with a tank top. So, and the tank top being solid, those are the easiest ones to find. So this will look really good with like a black tank top or maybe like a chambray button up tied at the waist. There's a lot of options really. This is kind of neutral with all these colors. So I think paired with most any style neutral top, you would be good to go. Oh, I just love this. This is making me so excited to sew all of this stuff. Okay, next we have another simplicity and you guys have probably seen this one. I think it's still in the catalogs. It is an amazing fit pattern, 1652. I feel like I've been eyeing this one at various Joanne sales for years and years. I'm trying to find the year on this one, the copyright on this one too. 2013. Yeah, so that makes sense. But it's a really super cute fit and flare with an adorable little like chain embellishment and in the waist. The back also has you can't see it from here. I don't think yeah, you can. That little triangle cut out, which is really adorable and flattering you guys know like I love a back detail. And you can also do like a piping detail on the sleeve. And of course, with the princess seams and the amazing fit combo, you know, it's going to fit great without having to do a lot of work. So this is almost a no brainer pattern wise. And then they paired it with 1652 is a Ponty knit, which is interesting. I'm not so sure I would have chosen Ponty or a knit at all, I would have chosen woven. But it does say lightweight double knits is an option. And I guess Ponty could fall into that kind of double knit. But it is a lightweight knit ish. No, it's not. I'm trying to like make this trying to sell you on this, but not these Ponty, but you know, Ponty's kind of can be swapped out for woven anyways. So I think it's black. Yeah. So it is just going to be a beautiful black Ponty dress, which is kind of really great because that chain detail, I think you would really want a solid fabric so that the chain detail can really be highlighted. I am planning another trip to New York City at the end of June, I think, still working on the details with Amber. But that'd be the perfect place to source some of this chain, because I really have no idea where to go get it. But the Ponty is really nice quality. It is a little bit, you know, kind of has some weight to it as Ponty does. But it's still very it's hard to see because it's black. But can you'll see some of that drape? Yeah. So the gathers that are in the front of the dress on the waistband are going to look really, really great in this in this drapey, drapey Ponty. It might be a little warm for it might be a fall dress, you know what I mean? Because I don't know that I could wear it maybe in our early spring and then fall and then even in the winter with like a jacket over it. I know I could easily get away with that here. So beautiful Ponty. Okay, I think I have two more. Yep. Okay, so this is a pattern company that I don't think I've ever heard of before. But I'm going to explain to you why I got it anyways. So this is Green Bee patterns. And this is called the Amelia dress. So the Amelia dress is a bias cut dress fit and flare. It has like you can't see from maybe you can see these designs better. There's a glare from the light. But basically it has some interesting like side darts, no set in sleeve, center front bodice and center front skirts. So you could do some interesting strike details. It could be cute. I don't know anything about Green Bee though, nor do I think about this Amelia dress. Have any of y'all ever made it the Amelia dress before? This is so I paid the most for this one actually. This one is $9.60. But I got it because a I love trying new dress patterns. And I do feel like the style lines with those darts that come from the waist up ish diagonally are very flattering. And this would be a quick so I thought. But I think I got it the most because I love the fabric. Now the fabric is gorgeous. It is these little feathers, but Chevron background feathers on top and the feathers are metallic. It is really really pretty. This is a cotton. And I just thought you know what even if I decide to not make the Amelia dress, the cotton in and of itself for $9 is worth it. This is cotton by Jennifer Sampu for Robert Kaufman. Jennifer does not exo go create and shimmer is the line. Yeah, so it is narrow. You got to keep that in mind, which is probably why this dress you can make a whole dress out of this because they all the center front seams and center back seams. But I just thought you know a cute cotton dress you can't really go wrong. I have a good Jillian dress patterns that I can use for cotton. And I just loved this print. I just thought that it was really one of those cotton prints that looked like garment. You know a lot of them can look quilty or like little kids clothes. But this one felt really mature and I don't know just very pretty. So I think that since the pattern is cut on the bias meaning where the two like these what am I trying to say these um feathers are going to be sideways like this going in from each side. Same thing on this skirt. So that is either going to be really cool or really weird. Um, I haven't I can't decide if that's cool or weird. What do you guys think? I'm trying to like mimic exactly what it would look like in reverse so you guys can see. I don't know. I think it could be kind of cool. I mean you certainly don't have to cut it on the bias but it'll just be off green which we all know is just a suggestion. Most of the time not but sometimes just a suggestion. I don't know. I think it's a subtle directional thing that they have going so it could be okay. Better than them getting cut off I think. Okay I'm overthinking this way too much for a haul video. So there you go. Robert Hoffman metallic feathers on Chevron. It's really cute you guys. Really cute. And Green Bee's Amelia dress pattern. Seriously let me know if you guys have made that in the comments below if you have it on a blog or somewhere. I'd love to know what you guys think. Okay we're on our last one um out of five. This is again something I've been eyeing for a while because of the fabric. The pattern is a buttery top pattern by the number of five eight two six. So this is a pullover half-placket loose fitting blouse. It has some various options for the neckline various sleeve options and various shoulder seam options. So pretty versatile. I'm not sure honestly that I would have picked up this pattern just kind of on my own but you know it's nice to have tops and I could see myself making a short sleeve one to be honest. But mostly I got this kit and before I forget I paid four dollars and eighty cents for this kit um for this fabric. I know it's been around forever and ever. It's the rayon shali um that everyone knows and loves. I want to say it's from cotton and steel. I'm pretty sure it's from cotton and steel. I'm sorry if I got that wrong um but it is just a gorgeous print. I want to say one of the first times I had gone to fabric mark to look at their kits this fabric was matched with the gabriola skirt was matched with this. So instead of getting that abstract gray and black fabric it was paired with this fabric. So I mean push comes to shove I could not make that blouse top and I could make another gabriola skirt with navy tank top to go with it. I think that would be really stunning and really cute. So um since this was literally less than five dollars I figured I needed to go ahead and get the fabric because I have always always loved it.
