This is mostly for my own reference but I thought some of you who are wanting to sew, might benefit from seeing the different fabrics. These all came from Cali Fabrics.
When I order fabrics and then start to use it, I don’t know enough about the different knits to know what is what so hopefully, by documenting it here, that will help me figure out what I like and don’t like.
There are weights to many of these fabrics and the weight isn’t printed on my invoice. The Brushstroke Multi is very thin. I will wash all this before using it and see what I think once it has been laundered. Thin is great for a summer nightgown.
The first ones are all woven fabrics, mostly to be used for making Rhapsody.
Purple Mini Floral Chiffon
Turquoise Mini Floral Chiffon
It’s funny because not even realizing it was the same, I bought some of this same fabric in pink at the local sewing shop.
Royal Geometric Tribal Chiffon
The rest of these are all knit type fabrics.
Tie Dye Denim Look Stretch Knit
Blue Watercolor Stripe Slubbed Stretch Rayon Jersey Knit
Daisy on Turquoise Stretch ITY Knit
Blue/Yellow Dot Flower Rayon Crepe de Chine
Brush Stroke Multi Stripe Jersey Knit
Wine on White Double Brushed Poly Spandex Knit Fabric
Last, and in the “What Was I Thinking” category . .
French Fries on Mint Green Double Brushed Poly
Actually, I was thinking leggings to wear around the house . . for Nicole and Addie. Nicole didn’t seem real enthusiastic but I’m betting Addie would love them.

Thanks for sharing. I really like that denim-looking one and a couple of the others. The fries fabric is adorable for Addie, though I wouldn’t wear them myself. =)

Oh Judy, I didn’t know about this one. Thanks, I think. 😉 Make yourself the french fry leggings and then you and Addie can be long distance twinsies. 🙂

Thanks oodles as I am on a fabric freeze here .. No more fabric till I get rid of 1/2 of what I have now, and he was very adamant about it. Oh I would make an apron out of the ff material or leggins and a top for Addie. She would love it I am sure !

I think a french fry sleep shirt would be fun.
