Hello Sewing Friends!
As we wrap up INDIA WEEK here at MARCYTILTON.com, today I’m happy to bring you a new trio of exquisite silk patchwork kanthas featuring hand-dyed cotton backing. For those of you interest in the sold-out DARK BLUE MOON stay tuned, because more is already on the way from India. If you want first dibs on the next batch, remember to signup for a restock alert here.
Above is Gwen Spencer’s version of my designing sister Katherine’s B6422 design for Butterick. Unfortunately that pattern and fabric are out of stock, but this kimono-style jacket shows how these fabulous handmade fabrics from India can give a new fresh look to an old favorite pattern.
And finally, we all would love to see what you create with these one-of-a-kind fabrics. You can email photos of your garments to sewfab@marcytilton.com, and also share garment pics with our growing Facebook community.
Happy Sewing!
