 Hi you guys, it's Lindsay here, and if you can't tell we are going to be doing our semi-annual style maker fabrics Swatch video so the swatches that I have for you today are all of her new fabrics for spring 2017. I Have let's see here. How many I have 55 Swatches to show you today, so I hope you like long videos I Would recommend that you grab a pen and paper or open up the notes section the notes app in your phones or something I'm going to be giving the skew numbers as I talk about them so you can write down the ones that you like and That would be the easiest way for you to find them on the site since there are so many I am going to be putting links in the description box below Where you can find all of them? But again, it's a little bit hard to use that because the descriptions are sort of similar for some of them And there's just literally so many so write down the skew numbers of the ones you want to check out on her site And that would be the easiest way. I think so without further ado. Let's dig in as always these swatch videos are just my first impression of The fabrics that she has sent me so I haven't seen these before I have gotten a few sneak peeks of some stuff online But it was teeny tiny swatches and it was like months ago at this point So I don't even know if I'll remember so for the most part. This is going to be First impressions. I do love Michelle's taste in fabrics though. So it's usually pretty favorable for her Alright first up. We have a Oxford Shirting in solid pink This is actually Surprisingly much different than I thought it would be the color is like I want to say It's like fuchsia and white mixed in together, which really sets off this kind of Like bright bubblegum is how I would describe it, but it has a lot of stretch all along the diagonal it is a woven and Yeah, it has a really nice hand to it like it just feels really nice sort of like a linen in a way without the little Texture without the texture that linen has So, yeah, this is one one one three one Oxford Shirting solid pink a hundred percent cotton Cool the next one actually to these coordinate I think so a little bit. I mean, it's not exact, but it's close I mean, I think that if you made like short side of this for example or skirt You could totally make a top from this and have like just a really on Wednesday's we wear pink outfit I guess if you're into that They would they coordinate more so than match. So keep that in mind. This is gingham shirt Jean I'm sorry gingham check Shirting that's kind of hard to say 100% cotton as well one one one two nine Again, the colors are like hot pink and then you add in a little bit more white This one here is almost like barely nude Really cute gingham though if you are into checks and I'm sure pretty much every southern girl is like myself So, yeah, really cute Here's another fun one. This one is shirting 100% cotton the plaids the colors include white coral yellow and pink But this to me is like a lime green so it also has that aspect to it It's a very madras looking to me Wow a lot of stretch in this even though it's a hundred percent cotton. That's not on the bias that is Just the regular stretch and then look how much it stretches that way Wow So this would make an excellent like fit and flare dress because you could get the top like super fitted with all that Stretch and then the skirt would still hold up really well because it's you know hundred percent cotton It's got some structure to it. That's really nice. It is on the lighter side pretty lightweight Compared to this one that is got a little bit more structure to it a little bit more heft to this one. So, yeah One one one three two on this plaid if I didn't say that already Wow, look at the colors of this one. Okay. This is crepe Stretch double knit techno swirl and black and coral So double knits always have the backing is a different color. This is poly lycra Got a lot of stretch One or I guess two way or one way stretch and then stretch along the diagonal, but look how pretty it's almost like brush strokes This would make a really great in our ET. I know well I kind of feel like everybody in their brother is made An RIT out of a double knit, but this one. I don't know. I just feel like the big large scale like They look like leaves to me. They I don't know where techno. Oh Maybe it's a techno knit not techno doesn't refer to the Print so much as it does how the knit is made. So yeah, that's probably it So swirl is what they're calling this but again, it's kind of like a leaf to me Really pretty. This would make a cute dress cute skirt One one two two eight crepe stretch double knit techno swirl pretty colors Pretty colors. Yep Alrighty now we have wow. This must be yeah, a voile. This is a rayon voile I mean look at the drape of that. Can you guys see how it's just like Come it's like air like it feels like nothing in my hands. That's amazing Flamingo squad is what this print is called really cute So you can see barely barely that some flamingos are white and some flamingos are baby pink More like a peachy pink the background is like a muted Maw kind of it's not a hot pink As much as it's reading on camera It's it's more muted than that like a muted hot pink or a dark mob is what I would describe it as but man The weight of this is something else rayon a voile Really drapey really pretty would make a really great blouse really really great This one is one one zero four nine Cool, oh floral, you know I'm a sucker for floral. So this is the same Fabric as this one was except this is in a floral print obviously and black fuchsia and coral are the colors There's also some white in there There's some like grays and beiges and lots of other fun colors So really pretty floral here one one one six eight same exact Fabric type as this one just in a different print Pretty more plaid. I feel like plaid and spring. I mean sort of obvious Actually, Pratt Platt's pretty good and fall just depends on the colors. So yeah, this one has Coral yellow and pink Coral going this way yellow and then the hot pink. So this one's really pretty It feels like it has more of the weight of the first of this gingham, but even maybe even more Structure than that. It's just described as a shirting 100% cotton might just have like a bit of a tighter weave going the crosswise bias stretch is really nice Yeah, I would have a little bit of stretch this way too. Yeah, this is cute if you're into yellow and pink This I don't know about coral for this. This looks a lot like sherbet orange to me But really bright really fun really perfect for spring very eye-catching and this one is 11133 Here is a French terry double stripe in orange and heather gray and you can see the French terry you can see the loops on the back Really soft really nice. This one's actually really cute It kind of reads a little bit more athletic to me. Maybe because the double stripe But it is I lost all my sheet Oh orange and heather gray one one two three four 100% cotton French terry the heather gray is a really pretty heather gray here But yeah, it's cute. I think it kind of reminds me of tube socks You know how tube socks have like the two stripes on the top or like a jersey has a two stripes on the sleeve So maybe that's why it's giving me athletic at leisure vibes Really cute though very soft pretty lightweight for a French terry on the thinner side cute Look at this one. Wow. Look at that texture Okay, what is this? This is this is cotton jacquard print in cream coral and aqua 100% cotton one one one one nine and I'm gonna try and show you the texture Can you see that? Yeah, look at all that texture. It's really pretty almost kind of like Medallions maybe leaves and swirls. I don't know. It's really pretty though And I just love prints that have Hot colors like this is like a hot pink This is this is coral to me like a hot red orange, but it also has like olives Light greens and baby blues in there, too. It really has like a little bit of everything It's just like a rainbow of colors So pretty so tropical. It does have some structure to it. Obviously. I mean there's like Hardly any drape at all. It's just very kind of stiff because of the jacquard and then the backside is All white so it doesn't you know The print isn't on both sides, but it's really really great print. It's really great jacquard as well I feel like no stretch whatsoever I mean an itty bitty amount this way itty bitty really nice though That that would be a really pretty something maybe I guess a jacket comes first to mind But maybe even some shorts could be really cool out of this. It's not like super see-through or anything like that. I Mean a little bit, but not much. So yeah, really really interesting. Okay. What is next? Oh? This is a jersey knit stripe in coral and white. It's made of cotton and lycra and Yeah, it's just got a baby Stripe to it. It's got a lot of stretch a Lot of stretch that way and then you can see what is on the bias I mean it is so soft It feels like something you would make like a baby onesie or like a baby hat out of her something I don't know. It's got a ton of drape You can see how it's just like falling apart in my hands like hardly any structure at all and it is so Soft, I mean seriously so soft. I just want to like rub it on me Is that weird, I don't know this one's really really sweet. It is 11103 Really nice More flamingos This is flamingo cotton lawn. This must be the little floors. I know that she was getting some of that So that must be what this is this looks very familiar to me and I'm sure it does to all of you It is a hundred percent cotton 10683 Cute flamingos these ones are all the same. There's not like different variants of flamingos It's pretty sheer. Can you see the one the fabric below it through it? Yeah, like definitely sheer But Actually, it's kind of cool on the opposite side. It looks a little bit more like watercolor Not as vibrant though, obviously So yeah, this one's got like a lot of structure to it to not a lot of drape Um, it's sort of soft. I Guess we're cotton. It's really soft Yeah, but the flamingos are just that's why you're buying this the flamingos are freaking so cute So cool, and here's one this. Oh, this is like a bunch of hearts graphic hearts cotton lawn Orange like a gray blue Orange again like a baby lavender. These dots are like an olive green and then the background is like a beige So this is interesting cotton lawn. So I mean you guys know what that is in terms of like structure and weight It's very lightweight still got some structure That's what it looks like on the wrong side so slightly like washed out and lighter But yeah, this one's fun. I think from far away. You wouldn't it would almost just look like baby Chevron I don't know interesting. This one is 10996 graphic hearts Okay, now we're talking look how brave this is. This is neon neon in your face This one is rayon crepe tropical floral coral Multi, so yeah, I mean this is coral. This is like highlighter yellow Like this is neon yellow. This is like a turquoise like a Really bright neon turquoise and then this is a muted like gray beige. It's really pretty and this is a muted baby pink Which is really nice and these are whites. So yeah, I mean the colors of this are very vibrant very spring You can tell it has the texture of crepe Which is always nice a slight sheen to it Which is pretty I think this would make a great Maxi skirt. I mean I could really see this maxi skirt with like a white tank top just kind of like Doing really nice dressy with something casual or something really really bright which is a plain white tee Would be really striking in the spring. You can tell kind of what the drape is like By that, but yeah, can you not see like a really huge maxi skirt out of this? So nice the backside is white So, you know, you couldn't do like a high-low hem because you would be able to see the white unless that doesn't bother you That doesn't bother you by all means. Yeah, high-low hem would also be nice So yeah, and drapey and not that you could make like a blousy bodice with it I don't know the colors are actually really growing on me At first I was like out my eyes, but now I don't know if I'm kind of liking the idea of a maxi skirt a lot Hmm this one is what is it one is the one? I'm sorry one one two zero three rayon crepe tropical floral coral multi cute This one is a double-faced Sure is double-faced Jersey knit strike dot Coral yellow. Where do these names come from? This is a cotton and lycra blend So you can see where the dots are actually stitched through the stripe, which is okay It's just really neat to have It double-faced see because you can use both sides. It's like really soft I mean really soft it rivals that other striped knit. We talked about earlier and It is you know has some stretch going this way and then hardly any going that way at all So keep that in mind. It couldn't really be a vertical stripe It has to be horizontal and lots of bias stretch and yeah, it's just really cool I really like the dot side a lot better than the stripe side But maybe that's because I don't like yellow that much the orange is really pretty It's like a pumpkin orange and the yellow is like a really light Yellow like a daffodil kind of maybe in the middle not baby yellow or anything, but a little bit darker than that Really sweet and really soft and again. This is one one Wait, I lost it. I've got too many on here. Oh, there it is one one one zero two Okay, now this is to speak in my language. I'm loving this one. This one is coral reef rayon Poplin in red and peach now rayon poplin I'm not sure I've ever seen one of those before certainly never felt it rayon poplin. It is Pretty yeah, really soft got the got this feel of rayon. You know how rayon kind of feels a little bit silky It definitely has that going on and then the poplin kind of just makes it really Structured, but it does have some drapes. So it's like Poplin makes it structured, but the rayon makes it drapey, which is really interesting. The colors are absolutely gorgeous They're calling it red and peach. So yeah, this is like Legit fire engine red and this is yeah, like a peachy pink. It's really pretty in the background is white That's what the backside looks like And yeah, I just love the coral design. I mean I live at the beach So it's nice whenever you can find beachy type stuff, but that's not like in your face like Sailboats and stuff like that. You know what? I mean, it's like a little nod to the beach, which is really cool. So this one is 11018 Yeah, this one just feels really nice the drape is really great This would easily be like I could see this in like a fitting flare dress easily like I could see someone like Maggie London or somebody like that one of those designers Using this print is kind of that that style and look there's a little baby heart cute Okay, here we go more neon so this one is a rayon shali pineapple print in cream yellow and black I Guess they're calling the background cream I don't know. It's looks white to me and this is yes It's yellow, but it is again highlighter yellow very neon and it's almost like kind of like Graffiti, you know how it's just sort of like sprayed on that's what it looks like to me And then the the pineapples are like, you know drawn in black. So yeah, this one's fun Of course, I love rayon shali. I think it's still my favorite fabric Nothing's really topped it yet, but you can get an idea of the drape of it It's got some structure, but still some drape Which is nice and that's what the backside looks like So Pineapples mean welcome. Did you know that in Charleston? We have pineapples hidden everywhere like they're in gates In like the wrought iron work or they're in the stone work or they're like they're all over the place And they said that when the soldiers were coming home They put the little pineapples up there so that you know, they would all feel welcomed So if you want a little fun vibrant nod to the south wear pineapples This one is one one two zero five rayon shali pineapple print cute This one's interesting. It looks like a science experiment like a petri dish or something I Told you guys it was gonna be first impressions, right? Okay, so this one is cotton lawn abstract floral dot and green and natural the green on this is really pretty It's like a What color green is it? Kelly green maybe Yeah, maybe like a lighter But only by a little bit Kelly green and it's got like these I don't know like orbs and then in the middle of the orbs are like these little flower details And this color is like a dark dark dark brown That's in there too. So it's green brown and then this this reads white to me It may be like a light Beige, but it reads kind of white to me and then that's what looks like on the back side And it is cotton lawn. So again, as we said before cotton lawns got some structure to it Feels like cotton. I'm sure this washes up much softer though That's how I find with a lot of the hundred percent cotton fabrics So this one is one one two one three cotton lawn abstract floral dot green natural I'd say natural. Yeah, natural is like a little a shade more than white. So yeah, I go with natural and then Comparatively you have this green which is a little bit lighter. This is like a leafy green I guess I would describe that as and it's called bubble gauze bubble gauze is the type of fabric in Solid apple green apple green. Yeah Yeah, I get a granny smith apple. Okay Bubble gauze now. What is that all about? Okay? So it's got some stretch this way and none that way But you can it's really about the texture and I sort of thought gauze Already had this texture. So I don't know what bubble gauze means. Have any of y'all ever heard of bubble gauze before? this I mean maybe because it's like even more raised than regular gauze. I mean, can you see that? But it is sheer. Can you see the light through my fingertips there? It is sheer the colors really fun Especially with someone like olive coloring it would look really pretty Really great maxi skirts I mean really flowy tops all those tops of those huge bell sleeves This would be great for that. You can kind of get an idea of the drape there and how it kind of lays Yeah, so this one is 11139 11139 here This one's super pretty actually remember this from the From the Facebook group when we were picking out our choices for what we were all gonna make so everybody that's in the blog Tour is making a garment from one of these fabrics or maybe even more than one I know I'm making two I think a couple people are making two and I almost almost got this one It's rayon shali abstract floral and coral and olive So you can see that it's like a super pretty muted coral color Then you have like peachy pink then you have coral and beige and like a dark olive Almost brown and then like a gray brown and then over here you have mustard and yellow so you can see I mean it is Really pretty. It's almost like watercolor the way that it's done Kind of looks like camo, but like with flowers Camo flowers rayon shali, which y'all know I love that's how that's kind of draping Not known for having a lot of stretch Not even a whole lot on the bias there, but yeah, this one Still might end up making something out of this one. I just love the colors more than anything. I love the colors so so so much So 1 0 9 9 3 rayon shali abstract floral coral olive Okay, next up we have where are we Jersey knit? Stripe in olive and vanilla. So this actually doesn't look like olive to me. It's brighter than that like To me This is olive and look how dark that is. I mean even like the lighter shade of green in here isn't with that. This is like Avocado I would describe this more as avocado than olive, but it is a really great stripe Like I love big stripes and little stripes I think that's maybe why I don't like this orange and yellow stripe is because they're the same size But I love whenever they're different sizes. That's really interesting to me It is a jersey knit made of rayon and lycra. So I mean it is like all stretch and rayon Obviously makes it very soft. It's got a wonderful hand slight sheen to it Like rayon tends to do and yeah, it's just like really great I mean it would make a very very nice t-shirt like a T-shirt that you wouldn't want to garden in you know, it's a t-shirt like just a really nice t-shirt I don't know that there are any coordinates in here with it so far but But yeah, just a t-shirt and jeans, but still really nice if you had like a I don't know like a navy Jacket with it. I know she has some navy linen Because I got some of that to make a jacket. So that would be really nice. But yeah, it definitely is non-reading olive to me This is much lighter than that more like an avocado Um But the this is like a natural creamy almost white color, but yeah, it just feels so nice It's pretty thin, but you can't really see through it or can you can y'all see some light through that? So yeah, it's pretty I really like it that I love rayon just put rayon in everything can we It just elevates things so much Okay, here we have a linen tropical print With the colors cream green and fuchsia and this color here is like a dark dark brown almost black Oh, and there's also some like turquoise in there and this is like a really dark turquoise So yeah, also a lot of fun colors linen, you know linen. I don't have to describe to you what linen is Here's the backside is it's just printed on one side This will wash up and become softer and softer and softer and softer The more that you wash it and wear it. It is 100% linen to 1 1 1 2 7 the colors of this are just really pretty. I mean a linen dress like a sheath dress even or a Jacket or shorts or I mean you could wear this you could make anything out of this anything any woven garment whatsoever But the colors are really fun. It's very Tommy Bahama. I mean it is like tropical floral big leaves big hibiscus flowers like It's tropical Okay, what's next? Oh, here's another tropical one and a much different kind of This is like rainforest tropical to me. This one is rayon crepe tropical print in greens So the green color way of this and it's got like a lime green a dark Like forest green. This is black. This is white These are like blue greens like turquoise and seafoam and stuff like that. So that's really nice rayon crepe There is some texture there, but honestly, I don't know that I would have identified this as crepe if someone didn't tell me that But it does have the rayon in there, which makes it really soft It's pretty drapey as you can tell this would make a great blouse like Any kind of blouse, I think this would be really great We've had long sleeves with like a cuff at the bottom. That's how I'm picturing this I mean, I think this fabric would be great for that So there you have it. This one is 1 1 0 7 8 1 1 0 7 8 Here's one now. This one reminds me of my friend Amber. So I sewed this Because she likes all over prints that are really small and she really loves this dark turquoise color But so I hope you're watching Amber This one is rayon shali confetti print in teal and multi 1 1 0 8 0 So yeah rayon shali again Let's do a comparison of rayon shali and rayon crepe since I have them here Do you want to see that? Is this interesting? So you can see the drape of the two of them the comparison This one has more drape and this one has less drape both rayon, but this is woven in a shali and this is woven in a Crepe cool, huh? All right back to this guy. So the colors here. This is like Orangey brown and then mustard yellow and then dark turquoise and then like a light blue and white So the colors are really great together. I don't know that individually they would look good But together they are really really nice and you know rayon shali just makes great dresses great tops anything flowy drapey big skirts anything like that So 1 1 0 8 0 This one is called retro sunshine I'd give it that it's a retro and sunshine Retro sunshine floral rayon crepe in aqua floral rayon crepe. So yeah, this one has the crepe texture that I'm used to is actually Heavier weight than this one is yeah, definitely and the colors are just Bright Just bright colors Seafoam green turquoise sky blue bright orange yellow So this tickles your fancy This one is 1 1 0 7 6 cute All right, here we go. This one is tonal hibiscus Ity net in aqua and cream Ity nits are known for being very soft. This kind of almost almost reminds me of like swimsuit fabric It does have that like Really smooth hand to it. I mean it feels like Like really slippery kind of um, but It's got a lot of stretch going that way by a stretch, but hardly any going This way, but um the print is hibiscuses I presume hibisci But it kind of looks like palm fronds to me, but this is only a very small portion of it So the colors are really pretty. Yeah, it looks like a pool pool blue and white Looks like the ocean Pretty um 1 1 0 2 4 1 1 0 2 4 on this Here's a pretty blue color. I think these are yeah, okay, so I have been looking for modal nits For probably three years and I don't know why but it was so hard for me to find 100 percent modal and this still isn't 100 percent modal. I don't know why I What happened was is I got a shirt a t-shirt from Banana republic 100 percent modal. It's my favorite favorite t-shirt like the hem has fallen out of it It's like stretched out a little bit, but I don't care. I still love it. I love the way that that fabric feels So I still can't find modal 100 but this is pretty close. It's modal and lycra Um, and she has several colors of this. I want to say all the neutrals black olive Maybe a cream a navy This one. Maybe there was a purple one. She had a whole bunch So modal knit There's like this one. They are just so soft So drapey They feel seriously so good a lot like that baby Um hat one I was telling you guys about back here somewhere. Where did it go? Um Super super soft like you just want to sleep In sheets made of modal. I mean that would be like sleeping in a cloud I don't know. I can't find that other one that was really soft, but you know what I'm talking about with the baby baby stripes on it Where did it go? Anyways, um, that's what this one's like. I mean super thin super drapey super lightweight Super soft super awesome Super this one is super. Um, and this color is really nice too. I got neutrals. I got I think I got navy and Olive is that what I got? I can't remember too many fabrics. Um This one is numbered 11164 11164 really pretty it almost matches this really well A little bit Okay, here's some more plaid This one is Shirting 100 cotton 11134 the colors here are just really pretty. This is You know a shirt dress waiting to happen. You know what I mean? Um, I have a shirt dress that I made from a plaid that has Not traditional colors in it and it's hands down The garment that I get the most compliments on of all my hand maids um, because I think it is I think people see it and they think it's ready to wear because I don't know, but it's not because the fabric is so unique the coloring of the fabric is so unique and I feel like that's how this is um, so yeah, I mean this would make Obviously a great shirt dress It's going to wash up and be a little bit more softer and draperier than this as most cottons do Um, it does have a little teeny teeny tiny bit of texture to it. I mean the littlest bit the littlest bit, um But yeah, the colors are pretty. I mean they almost look purples and turquoise and light green and yellow and pink obviously, so yeah cool fun plaid this one is french cherry our friend We love french cherry. This is french cherry even stripe in sea green and gray So again, you can see these are all the same size I like this one more than that one because I guess the bigger the even stripes get the more that I like them Um, but yeah, big huge loops on the other side very very large. Can you see how big the loops are? Yeah but the um What call a sea green and gray is a great combo. This will make an excellent hoodie Um excellent like pullover after you're getting out of the pool like just some kind of pullover dress that you can like Lounge by the pool in yeah, this one is great. Look at all that stretch um None going that way and that's what the back side looks like The wrong side Really cool. The gray is really light and it is a little bit sheer because those loops are so big Um, the it makes little teeny tiny holes So I don't know if you can see that but I mean they're minuscule Minuscule so yeah like a pullover or a hoodie or you know a sweatshirt any of that kind of stuff. This would be great Great great. Here's another french terry. This might be the exact same I mean they look really similar to me um This one is solid sea green So You could yeah, these are the same. So these coordinate together Perfectly so if you want to make a hoodie or a sweatshirt and then you want to do your cuffs and your collar in this This is what those would look like together Super super cute. So yeah, if you honestly if you're going to get this you kind of have to get this too. I mean You have to use it. It's very rare to find a coordinate like this Um that you can buy at home. I mean big big manufacturers make their own obviously we can't do that So yeah, the fact that you have one that coordinates so well You have to get both So 11088 for this and 11089 for the solid Cute that just you know so many ideas running through my head Blank slate has that denver tunic which is can be color blocked. That would be super fun out of this Super fun. Okay Moving on This is pretty. This is tropical leaves poly crepe aqua. So this one's polyester So instead of it being rayon It's a hundred percent man-made Um And it just feels a little crisper than the rayons do still has the drape still has the sheen still has the like I don't know. It feels like Um smoother maybe then Then the rayon does and I don't know what okay, so I don't know if this is Part of the print or not, but you can you see how it's like ombre like over here This is like dark royal blue and then when you get over here, it's much much lighter. So Is this a border print? I'm not a hundred percent sure Um, but there's definitely some gradients going on here with the With the colors. So I don't know what happens with that, but it's kind of if it is it's kind of cool If it's not and you only wanted to use this You might need to message michelle and ask her like if you need to buy extra guarded or something Um, so this one is uh one one zero two zero It's really the first hundred percent polyester one that we've come across. That's interesting Cool. Okay. Here's another coral one coral reef rayon poplin in blue and aqua. Okay, so this is the other colorway of Where'd my coral go? Here she is. So there's your two colorways of this This one is What do I say blue and aqua? Yeah, blue and aqua Blue aqua and then this is like periwinkle So, yeah, there you have it Your warm colors and your cool colors. Okay, this one is One one Zero one seven one one zero one seven I prefer the red one to be honest, but that's just me. Maybe I just prefer warm warmer colors Maybe I just prefer that peach. I don't know. Um, okay one one zero one seven This one is large floral printed Twill blue multi and I got this weird shaped Is this because it's Well, I don't know why I got this long strange strip and not A square one maybe because the floral print is so large She probably felt it was better. I mean, this is like painted. It looks so cool Um twill The colors are really nice Really nice again like a light periwinkle white dark blue almost navy black like a dark sky blue pretty And the back side is just white But it has the twill Weave which as you guys may or may not know it's like got a diagonal kind of weave to it Great for pants great for shorts Um any bottom weight twill. This is a really nice You know mid bottom mid weight bottom weight twill. So I would make pants or a skirt would be great The chi-town chinos any version of that would be great A-line skirt if you made like a pleated skirt It would be pretty full. I wouldn't recommend gathered It's just too heavy for that But plates would be nice Okay, this one is One one two two four One one two two four on that Okay. Oh cool. Look at this Interesting. Okay. This is jersey knit watercolor stripe In blue and lavender and it's a hundred percent rayon So a hundred percent rayon jersey knit. Oh my god, like that is like Amazing really nice The print is so interesting. It's like it is like watercolor. It's like splatter paint. It's like graffiti. It's like very cool art So but yeah, the feel of this is just really nice. I mean, yeah, you just want to kind of cut off with this. Um Yeah, look at the stretch And then that the backside is all white Interesting. This is like grungy, you know, like if you wanted to do like a Ripped jean and then like this top that would be so cool to me So fun and I love purple and it has some pinks and some blue greens in there too. So Yeah, one one one zero eight This one. Okay. This is fun. It is this is french terry. Yeah neon confetti french terry stripe and ivory and denim. Okay, so you have the Ivory stripe and the denim stripe different size stripes I don't know why i'm on that kick today and then mixed in there are these little neon splatters like neon yellow neon orange And then there's like some other splatters that are more just like muted brown mostly neon yellow and orange I don't see much neon blue. That might have come from the other one. I can't tell if it's just Well, it's over here too. I don't know. Anyways, so yeah, that's just so fun And then the um, let me show you the one without the sticker on it The french terry is very small not very Like loose pretty tight woven french terry. Um, and it's just really soft. It's a hundred percent cotton This is really nice. It's very lightweight It's much more lightweight than the other french terries that we looked at earlier The ones with the coordinating like this like these two It's much lighter weight than that. Okay. I don't know if you can tell that on camera or not But I mean this one is just a little bit thicker and this one isn't so it creates a little bit more drape And then to compare the back sides you can see totally the difference in the like Loops on the back of the french terry there So, yeah, that's cool. This is nice. I like this. This will be fun It's neon but in like a upscale kind of way, I guess Okay, so this one is one one two three three And then here's a french terry in solid heather blue Again with those big loops in the back. So this one's like Thicker much thicker. This would make a great like um What are shoot the named? Sound yo card again that we all just made for so my style And I just love how it's like, um, heathered like the heather blue is really really nice But yeah thicker heavier weight french terry here. This one is 11090 Cotton and rayon That's really nice That's really nice. Okay. This one is french terry even stripe Denim and heather green and the heather of the cream. Did I say green? I meant heather cream the heather has like I mean like black And baby blue, but it almost looks like little hairs coming through kind of That's interesting That's really interesting. Okay, and you can see the loops. They are kind of smaller but bigger than bigger than the neon one Yeah, the color of the what did they call this denim? So here like it's like dark denim. This is not denim This is like light blue like A shade darker than sky blue You know what I mean? Um, this is denim to me. This is just blue Um, so yeah, this one's so interesting. I can't tell that if I wore it I people wouldn't think that I gotten like cat hair on it. That's kind of what it reminds me of Because some of them are even coming out. I wonder what happens when you wash it I think if you wash it, maybe all those go away and then you're left with just this like gray Oh, I don't know I don't knew but there it is This one is 11091 11091 it does feel really good 100 cotton Okay, this is what is this double knit crepe stitch double knit tropical blue green poly lycra. So this is the exact same As oh dear lord. I don't even know if I can find it anymore Maybe these two so you have the floral and remember this techno swirl And now you have this blue one this floral one um And with like bright orange. I mean bright bright orange pops there So same as those two Just a different print Tropical big leaves big blue leaves. That's interesting blue leaves Okay, um next up Cool, it's kind of like henna a little bit linen Batik print cream and indigo pretty pretty blue colors here Really pretty and kind of like a little abstract because you have like this splattery stuff Almost looks like puff paint, but it isn't actually textured It just kind of reminds me of that but yeah, it's like a little henna tattoo and then like a flower and All kinds of stuff all printed on linen 100% linen Really nice gonna wash up lovely same as um Whatever that other linen was I can't remember like in the scheme of things what where it might have been I can't remember what it looked like Oh here it is here it is here it is found it found it. All right, so there you go You have your two linens there. I just love like the blues and the denims and those lighter colors so nice Here is a polka dot stretch sateen in navy and white and this is cotton lycra and you guys this is like Jeans it's like denim. I mean there is like seriously No drape whatsoever to this at all like none like it's just like a sheet Interesting and then there's the backside. It's all white I wonder what happens to this when it washes up I I can't tell if that's just like it's structured because there's like a film on it or what But yeah, I mean this is like stiff as a board Kind of like upholstery I mean it's got no stretch No stretch. So again chai taljinos. They are called for no stretch um Yeah, interesting very nice um 1 1 1 2 2 The polka dots are like the size of a quarter. I would say I wish I had something to show you for reference, but I don't That's my big iPhone. Here's my hand. I guess that's as good enough as any anyways. They're like, yeah Maybe the size is a little bit smaller than a quarter Cool Oh, this one's pretty. This one is polka dot stretch sateen navy white cotton lycra so Yeah Oh, and then the backside the backside's kind of usable still You know you can kind of see the dots but not a ton That's nice little bit of drape not so much But I bet this would wash up and be a little bit draper um 1 1 1 2 2 on this 1 1 1 2 2 the color is really pretty mid-weight denim colored more like, you know your typical chambray color Oh, love this Okay, this is rayon crepe scatter dot print 100 rayon. This is really pretty. I just love these. Did you see how I just slid off my hand like that? Whoa? um Again with the chartreuse yellow seafoam green dark seafoam green. It's got like a purple navy background white splatter in there too. That's what the backside looks like Pretty I love this one I love this one. This one feels really nice Cool. I like this one a lot. Okay. This one is 1 1 2 0 7 Pretty pretty blouse pretty dress pretty skirt Pretty much anything Cool Here's a fun one. This one is denim stretch-shirting dot Wrong That's not bad. That's this this one is floral stretch denim print Pauly I'm sorry cotton Pauly and spandex So you can see the stretch this way And the stretch that way is like none. That's like hardly any stretch at all And then you have your stretch on the bias I don't know. I would just make jeans or shorts with this Jeans shorts a cute jean jacket. Gertie came out with one that would be so fun out of this A jean jacket would be really cool. I feel like did Somebody else just come out with a jean jacket too. Hmm. I can't remember anyways This is really fun. I like this one a lot. It is just printed on the one side. So that's what the backside looks like You can still see the print through it, but still Um, this is one one zero five five One one zero five five interesting, you know, I might not have liked this on the computer but In person. I really do like it a lot Again, if I were up for making a jean jacket, I would totally make one out of this Look at this one. Whoa. Okay. Wow. Wow Okay, this one. Sorry. I just kind of got overwhelmed there. This one is lace overlay denim It's 100 cotton one one one two zero literally has a lace overlay of like dark dark dark almost black denim And the lace overlay is like a navy color, but when it hits the light it kind of looks a little bit purple in a way Interesting and that's on the back side. Maybe it's black denim with blue on it That is amazing. I mean it is very stiff almost like the navy dots the navy circles wherever they went I felt like they were yeah, I mean but thicker because you know, it's two layers, but almost the same stiffness and drape as that Wow Interesting it does have some stretch. That's cool Nothing going any way down the other way. I don't know. It's just so pretty It's really pretty Interesting super cute like I can see this out of a cropped jacket with like no collar No zipper no buttons just very plain and just letting the fabric really shine through on this Really nice awesome Okay, so spoiler alert This is the one that I picked for my blog tour make I think it comes out on friday And you might have seen a couple of other sneak peeks of this on Instagram stories too. So if you're on instagram, you would have seen it there But it is a butterfly wing rayon crepe and navy and white so you can see There's like butterfly wings all over it and as you if you don't know, I love butterflies I wear one here. I have one on my necklace. I wear these things every day Um, yeah, I just love what butterflies represent. So when I saw this and I liked how it wasn't like Childish butterflies. It's a very very mature butterfly print Um, and it's rayon crepe. So, you know, I love my rayons And it's navy and white. So I've got This and then I'm also making so I'm out of this I'm making a maxi dress And I've also got that navy linen I told you about that I'm making a little crop jacket from something similar in style that I was picturing for this Um, so yeah, it's just really nice. It's been great to sew with I'll be able to tell you all a lot more about all of that on Friday's post But yeah, it's just really pretty and also meaningful. So if you're into butterflies I know a lot of people are Um, you have to grab this. It's so nice 11082 on this guy Oh, this looks like ready to wear Yeah, I mean, I would totally see this in like A really nice shop like almost Wow, okay. So this is jersey knit rib texture solid oatmeal rayon and lycra. This is so Pretty you guys. I mean, I know it's just like a solid Knit, but this rib texture Can you see how the light is catching it? That is so this would make the most Gorgeous sweater and it wouldn't even take that much work To make it special because the fabric is really what's so special. This is awesome This surprisingly might be my favorite fabric in this whole stack so far. Is that weird? I don't know. I just really think it looks so expensive so chic This is I like this a lot a lot of life. You can't gather that 11100 So nice this would make I mean Wow, okay, this would make some super cute tops super cute dresses I'm sorry. My mind is like already thinking of like, what can I make with this? What patterns do I have? Um, would it be drawstring? Would I be like Henley? What would I would have? um, contrasting rib knit Cuffs or you know what I mean? Like my mind is just racing about it already. It's so pretty you guys Look at the back side. So the back side Okay, so the back side has those rib knits, but they're even bigger Can you see them on this side? So I guess you could use both sides Interesting I love this 11100 11100 rayon lycra All right, well that's going in the cart for sure. Okay. This one is linen blend So it's a blend of linen rayon and lycra It's a shirting and they call the color They call the color flax like flax seed and I can totally see why that's the perfect Description of this color flax seed. Um, so it's got a little bit stretched to it with that lycra in there. Um, it's Got a pretty soft hand considering it's linen. Um, that's probably the rayon that's in there. Um, but it's still pretty structured and sturdy Um, if you want to get an idea of that Um, yeah, this would make a great pair of shorts great pair of pants I could even see it out of wide leg pants because it would hold that shape of the wide leg really well Um, it'd make a great shirt dress I know a bunch of you are doing that shirt dress challenge right now So this would be a good option for that if you haven't picked your fabric yet or if you're just jumping in Yeah, this is kind of cool, but it is like pretty natural. I mean, it's granola. It is like this is safari um Sunny is sitting in my lap right now and he's trying to climb on the counter So if he makes it and you see him up here in the window frame, that is what is going on Um, anyways, so but yeah, I mean My only reservation is the color. I mean it would probably completely wash me out. Um, but if you're into these like Natural natural colors, then this is a really nice one Um, what number is it? 1 1 0 3 6 on this And then we have an animal print This is surprising to me. This is our first animal print we've come across I feel like in her fall Fabric launch she had several animal prints But anyways, this is the first one it is crepe Stitch double knit animal print brown poly lycra Here he comes can you'll see him? Nope not yet He's trying to work up the courage. Um, okay. Sorry. Let's stay focused. This is already like a really long video polyester lycra crepe double knit So it's just like those other ones. It's like those other ones. We've been talking about all day long Like these two and like that other one, um, like this one That I showed you guys, but this is animal print. So that's interesting to me That could be really fun that fabric in animal print interesting Who wants an animal print in r.e.t. Dress? Anybody raise their hands like that'd be so cool and so fun Nice. I like this. I like this a lot. This is um number 1170 Here okay, so I got some of this also um, it is tropical print french terry gray and white um because I don't know to me it felt like A sweatshirt, but it also felt like tropical These are obvious statements already. I realize I'm not being that creative with my description right now But um, I just thought that those two things together. I don't know felt like a little bit juxtaposed. I felt like you don't really wear sweatshirts and the tropics And you don't see tropical prints in like sweaters very often. I don't know. Anyways I really liked it. So I got it and I have a very unique and interesting idea For this I just need to find a perfect match to the background, which she doesn't have so Once I do that, I'll be able to finish. I've already cut out. I think I'm dedicated to this so I've already cut out everything other than the um bias Bindings and so once I do that then I'll be able to finish this up and everyone will see But yeah, it's been really great to sew with the um loops on the back You can see are a little bit thicker, but they are tighter together than some of the other ones we've seen And that just makes for a more drapey um But still kind of thicker sweatshirt material um french cherry So, yeah, there you have it They washed up wonderfully no pilling nothing like that the background. I mean, yeah the background of the print is almost like gray and oatmeal together um woven together so and that makes sense because The fabric is gray, but the um loops are oatmeal. So that's probably what you're seeing coming through there So it's just really hard to match that like I don't see that very often. So I have to find something close If not perfect for what I'm making Okay, next up. Oh, and this was if I didn't tell you the number It is 1 1 0 9 9 on this guy and this is a jersey knit dot cream black and 1 1 1 0 7 cotton lycra Jersey knit dot Oh Oh Wow. Oh Wow This is nice This would make a great dress I bet this would make a dress that you would want to wear on Thanksgiving because it would be so forgiving So it's got a lot of recovery. I mean it just like springs right back That is so interesting. Okay. So that's really cool. And then what's this? Oh, oh Two-way stretch. That's great And then a lot on the bias. Look at that It's like doubling in size that way. But look it comes right back and holds its shape perfectly perfectly Wow, okay. And this is what the back side looks like. That's still pretty interesting to me That's cool. I like this. This one's interesting I would never have guessed any of that from just seeing it online. Okay, so this one is 1 1 1 0 7 It must have a ton of lycra in it. That's all I can imagine cool That's just fun Okay, what's this reversible? Let's see. Oh A little sneak peek. I know all you were looking at those sunglasses right now. That's okay. Um, you can jump ahead Uh, so this is a reversible jersey knit and gray and ivory cotton lycra again So lighter weight than this like look at the drape like this is like really drapey and this one isn't Which just goes to show why it's so hard to buy fabrics online because this is cotton lycra and this is cotton lycra But the amount of lycra in each of them is what is determining how drapey it is And the stretch, you know, doesn't have near as much stretch as that one does So anyways, it's why they do these videos. It's why michelle puts together this whole package for me So that we can share them all with you guys and you can get a a better sense of what we're working with here um, okay, so This one is 11229 So it has even stripes. Um, there may be a quarter of an inch on this side and then like easy teensy Maybe 16th of an inch on this side They look really good together. I mean, yeah You definitely have to find a pattern that could utilize both sides because they look so good next to each other It would even be cool if it were like this where they're cut on the bias And the mini stripe is going one way and the big stripe is going the other way That's I mean, this is an accident that I just folded it this way, but I think it looks really cool Can y'all see sunny now there he is he's dying to be a part of this video He just has to interject himself in any way possible There's a little teeny tiny paw okay Next up we have okay, so This is the same as the tropical. Um, but it is sunglasses and yes, it's really cute. Um Same weave on the back same everything. It's just a different print Um, and the sunglasses are 11097 cotton rayon again same as this Um Just cute and fun. So you have two options um with these sunglasses or Tropical and I know for sure she made a hoodie out of this Um for so expo so if I can find a picture I'll post one here. It turned out really really cute Um, but yeah fun fun sunglasses print Oh, this one's cool This one looks like, you know pen drawing like interesting hand drawing um rayon Nope tropical floral rayon crepe in black and white rayon crepe tropical floral print So just like the other ones we've seen rayon crepe really nice soft hand really drapey But the print is really what this is all about So if you're into black and white, I mean this would make an excellent dress You would see this in white house black market in a second in a second Really nice really pretty they would probably charge a hundred dollars for a dress like this So nice Okay, this one is rayon crepe heavy weight solid black We got all the other fabrics off of it rayon crepe heavy. Oh, so this may be like Yeah, I mean it's definitely rayon. It feels nice Crepe though. I'm not really feeling the crepe right now, but I guess That's what it looks like when it's woven really tightly to make it heavy weight um Interesting it would make really nice cool odds Really nice pants like a draper jacket Or like a heavier weight shirt But solid black it is catching like a lot of Stuff though things are sticking to it other fabrics and stuff I wonder what happens to this whenever I wash it I wonder if I should wash some of these And then report back which I want to know about that. Is that important to you? What happens after they get washed? Let me know, but yeah, it's just solid black black Hmm interesting. Okay. This one is one one two two three This one is one one zero five six if I didn't say that Sunglasses is one one zero nine seven I hope I remember to say those anyways, um one one two two three here rayon heavy weight This one's pretty this one is Romantic blooms rayon crepe and they're calling the color rouge, but again So yeah, I definitely have a thing for like multicolors because it has like the red and the really bright Not bright pink, but like the really nice dark bubblegum pink And the beige and the white and the mustard and the green and the navy blue background And tape I didn't even notice that it has tape on it. Just ignore this yellow part if I can't get it off Nope, let's hope yours doesn't come with tape on it. Um And it's a hundred percent rayon rayon crepe one one zero three two Just a really pretty print Really great drape I love springtime because that's when all of these Rayons come out and I'm so happy because I love rayon so much So same as the other rayons that we've talked about um flowy dresses flowy tops um skirts any of that Any of that really nice And then last we're at the very end you guys We've done it If if you are still watching this video, then you are a fabric haul fabric Oh, haul it just like me and I love you If you've made it to the end leave a comment because I wanted to get send you an emoji kiss Um, okay windowpane stretch satin black and white. This is cotton lycra I love a windowpane, but it is a pain to sew because you have to match up this stripe and you have to match up those stripes No fun, but this one's not so bad because they're sort of bigger. Anyways, um Stretch satin. Okay stretch satin. Wow. Okay Um, it does have a little bit of stretch to it um a lot of stretch on the bias I love stretch satin for um fit and flare dresses This would make a superb circle skirt. Can you imagine this windowpane in a circle skirt? The lines would just be like That would be awesome Would work as shorts obviously So, yeah, really modern modern print here very modern Um, let's see these two together Yeah, the blacks match really well This is a this is a slightly teensy bit lighter than this Um, and then you have this guy here windowpane and floral pattern matching that could be fun lots of options This is one one zero five one and I'm signing off.
