This stretch twill from Robert Kaufman has 15% crosswise stretch. At 7.5 oz per sq yard, it is lighter than most denim and the visible twill weave creates a stunning shine in the light. A perfect blend of drape and structure for pants and jackets, we suggest making a set of Mila Dungarees, Quadra Jeans, or Stafford Jacket with this fabric!

Designed by Elizabeth Hartman, the Kitchen Window Woven collection features a stunning ombre effect within these gingham lawns. Lightweight and airy with nice drape, this versatile fabric can make a quilt or garment. We suggest making a Rapid City quilt or Savannah Shirtdress with this collection!

Essex linen is 55% linen, 45% cotton, which makes it comfy and washable! Elizabeth Hartman and Carolyn Friedlander both use this versitile fabric in their quilts, and it’s also great for shorts, pants and jackets. We can’t wait to make the Merchant & Mills Rugby Dress or a pair of True Bias Emerson Shorts out of this fabric.

This popular Kaffe Fassett fabric is now available as a 108″ wide back. With an incredibly soft hand, it is perfect for both quilting and garment making. We suggest backing a colorful Posh Penelope quilt or making a Michelle dress like Kate, which you can read about on the blog, with this fun fabric!

If you haven’t experienced soy knits yet (and even if you have!), these organic knits will blow your mind! The colors are gorgeous, the fabric doesn’t pill, and the weight is just right. Plus, it has 85% crosswise & 60% lengthwise stretch with excellent drape and recovery. And, if that wasn’t high enough praise, my 20-something daughters have stolen all the tees I’ve ever made for myself out of this knit! We suggest making a Concord Tee or Easton Cowl-Neck Tee with this knit. 

Introducing Kaleidoscope Studio’s debut collection – Avant Garden. This soft, mid-weight twill weave is 100% Lyocell.

Lyocell – made from cellulose fibre – is similar to rayon. However, the dry jet-wet spinning method used to manufacture it requires much less water and no harmful chemicals, so it’s better for the environment!

This vibrant fabric, which features a lovely heft and drape, would make a darling Closet Case Fiore Skirt a Holyoke Maxi Dress, or a show-stopping pair of Emerson Pants!

This super soft, Japanese cotton lawn is made from organic Turkish cotton! Very lightweight, it features a good mix of structure and drape, as well as a smattering of stunning polka dots! Make a marvelous M&M Edie Top, WBM Tropical Shirt, or the Liesl & Co. Fira Dress!

One of our favorite fabrics, Ventana twill is a soft, mid to heavy-weight cotton with saturated color. Not too stiff at 7.6 oz, it’s excellent for jackets, pants, and skirts. We’d love to use this for a pair of True Bias Lander Pants or a Merchant & Mills Ottoline Jacket!

Care instructions: Safe to wash and dry. Will shrink so be sure to pre-wash. 

Transport yourself straight into a 1960’s mid-summer paradise! From Art Gallery’s Sunburst collection this retro, cotton knit has 70% crosswise stretch, 50% lengthwise stretch and a good recovery. Make an adorable Rio Ringer Dress or a Christine Jonson Pencil Skirt out of this summery fabric.

From the Canadian company Telio, this 100% cotton eyelet features a lovely floral pattern with a scalloped selvage that’s a ready-made hem! Available in fun summery colors with a nice mix of structure and drape, we suggest making a Cashmerette Montrose Top or Merchant & Mills Camber Set with this eyelet. Each flower is 3″ in diameter.
