So it became my mission during sewing week in San Francisco to look for fabrics that are, honestly, more grown up than I typically choose. I needed to find yardage that co-ordinates with some "orphan" garments — those items of clothing you own that don't seem to really go with anything else you own. I have two pretty great blouses made of cotton/silk voile that I bought at Morrissey in Sydney two years ago, but they have no mates. Here is what I found at Britex.
I need to point out that the fabulous acid yellow plaid is not for a skirt. It's for a jacket. My photo's not great, but maybe you can see the fabric is shot with metallic thread. I will wear some kind of bright pink blouse with it and I bought some olive botton weight fabric for a skirt. This was quite a major purchase. I are a grown-up now. I think.
