Eunju and Mum outside Glynburn Fabrics, Firle, Adelaide
Had a lovely time this morning playing in the local fabric heaven – Glynburn Fabrics. Their store is just a TREASURE cave! We found fabric to make Eunju her “Audrey” dress (she loves Audrey Hepburn’s style, and this dress pattern will look gorgeous on her)
New Look 6723
as worn by the Divine Audrey in “Sabrina”
And because I couldn’t resist: this wonderful heavy cotton in cream, red, orange and brown (I KNOW, not supposed to be my colours, but it’s just so FUN!)
Very Caity Fabric!
Also shown = some cream pre-made satin bias binding, because that makes the neckline and armhole finishing so quick…
So – just an final check of the tissue fit for Ju’s pattern (we did the FBA last night, and shortened the waist length) and a quick iron and we’re off!

I am sure Eunju will love the dress when finished. What fabric did you choose for her dress?

The fabric is a black poly rayon blend that looks permenently randonly wrinkled…. lining is black cotton batiste (super fine!) and we’ve bought grosgrain ribbon and a buckle for day, as well as satin ribbon and a gorgeous little diamante oval backle for evening.

Oh, there’s nothing more wonderful in the world than a great fabric store! I’m glad you had a nice holiday! Happy New Year!
