I studied Home Economics in college and earned a Bachelor's degree 35 years ago. I have always loved to sew and create clothing from flat fabric. I have mainly been employed as a tailor for the past 17 years, but I so enjoy creating from scratch. I am efficient in flat pattern design but have recently found online sources for some amazing patterns! So, now my joy is over flowing except that I was unable to find fabric choices at reasonable prices. Well, what if I told you that after searching the internet high and low I have finally found some amazing resources? So far my favorite have been So Sew English, Peek-a-boo fabric shop, Fabric Fairy, Purple Seamstress and Raspberry Creek fabrics! My greatest favorite find is Raspberry Creek Fabrics. Not only do they have fabulous fabric printed on a variety of bases, but to me they are local! I don't always have time to wait for shipping so this is a big deal!
As far as pattern companies go my choices rank like this: Peek-a-boo pattern shop, Cute Kids Couture (CKC), Love Notions, Sinclair patterns, Greenstyle Creations, DIBYS (Do It Better Your Self), Sew Like My Mom, Sonia Estep, Ellie and Mac and Make it Like Jack's Mom.
Following are pictures that I will list the pattern maker and the fabric company.
