Here's a look at the fabric I purchased in New York City during PR Weekend 2012...
I purchased this cotton fabric specifically for this Simplicity Patter (#1885 - I'm thinking about view A - the floral dress on the right). I received this FREE pattern during the Simplicity Tour. I didn't realize the amount of work that goes into creating patterns. It was an unbelievable experience - I had so much fun during this trip.
I purchased this Knit Fabric (and, the cotton above) at Metro! The guys were so, so nice and the cuts of fabric are so, so generous!
I purchased 3 yards of this Italian Tweed from Paron's. I looked at it, touched it, held up it to me.... and, I walked away that was on Friday (shopping day), but first thing Sunday morning - I went back to get it. There was No Way I could leave this fabric in NYC. I want to make a Jacket / skirt combo.....
Silk backed Polyester (or something like that) for either some simple shirts or night clothes.
One of my favorite buys... It's a Pink Paisley Brocade (it has metallic in it). I so love this fabric! I'm either going to make a dress or skirt from this. I can't wait to wear it.
This is another Tweed that I purchased - before I cut the expensive Tweed - I'll practice making a jacket on this.
I also purchased some Black & White Zebra / Plain Black Cotton that I want to use to make a jumpsuit. Unfortunately, I can't find a picture of that fabric - although, I know there's one somewhere. In total, I purchased 22 1/2 yards of fabric. I've been to NYC on several previous occasions, but I had a totally different view of one of my favorite cities.
