I loved looking at your fabrics, I love the polka dots and the linen print in particular.
I noticed you didn’t put the widths of the fabrics. Might I know why?
Locally, they sell mostly 58-60in fabrics so imagine my surprise (and frustration) when I realized just how common 44-45in was in the USA. I’m glad I now have the reference cards “How Much Fabric?” because I have a lot of fabric for tops in my stash, LOL!

To be honest, it slipped my mind! I’ll have to remedy that! Thanks for mentioning it.

What fun! What is a smart solution to know what material to use for a certain pattern … however, I’m drooling on my keyboard …. OMG! How many beautiful fabrics!

Thank you! I *had* to sort it out before I started my next project. I felt at a standstill because I didn’t know how much of what I had. A chart made sense to me.
My local fabric shop has a FABULOUS remnants bin. It”s heaven. Pieces average about £6 for 3-5 meters. Not too bad, I think 🙂
