Textiles & Fabrics Crafty Tip

The secret to designing with textiles? It's in the swatches! Think of a swatch as the physical embodiment of an idea - one with color, form and texture. And then combine that idea (in the form of a swatch) with others, until, five, ten, or fifteen swatches later, you have the visual representation of your BIG IDEA - one which you may never have come to with your ideas alone. That's the power of the swatch. Use it wisely!



Great Fabrics and Patterns

Textiles & Fabrics Crafty Tip

Many patterns have multiple sizes. Use non-woven interfacing such as pellon to trace off the size you want. Pellon is very durable and you can pin on it over and over again. Make sure that you trasfer all markings, notches and fold lines; and label what the pattern is. If it's a vintage apron pattern, print that on each piece of pellon or the number of the pattern (like McCalls 5693). Fold your pellon pattern pieces when done and keep in a large envelope with the original.
