Cool Fabrics from Japan

Stop by the Winter Faire at the Detroit Waldorf School....this kid made scrunchies and necklaces made with handmade beads....and we have bags, pouches and candles too! . . #handmadenecklace #craftshow #winterfaire #detroit #handmadeindetroit

Happy weekend! I worked on a few Devon Pouches this week when I could squeeze in some sewing time. These are made with Essex linen, Japanese fabric, and even some thrifted denim-ish fabric I got at an estate sale. I'm going to add these to my Etsy shop soon.... . . . #handmadepouch #sotakpatterns #sotakhandmade #bagineer #devonpouch #essexlinen #japanesefabric #yuwafabric #sobakasu_kids #sobakasukids #kokkafabric #powerfulglitter #redintheheadhandmade

More new Japanese fabric in the shop! We are adding stock in preparation for Quiltcon (coming up quickly!) - swipe for close-ups of each fabric. Yes, I'm aware....a lot of cat fabric...and some birds for good measure! . . . #japanesefabric #kokkafabric #kiyoharafabrics #animalfabric #catfabric #urbansewfabricshop

Added some new colors of Robert Kaufman Essex linen to the shop. Such a gorgeous fabric! . . . #robertkaufman #robertkaufmanfabrics #robertkaufmanfabric #essexlinen #urbansewfabricshop

Just a few of my favorites from #quiltmarket2019 - soon to be appearing at Urban Sew! . . . #quiltmarket #urbansewfabricshop

Met @gingiber at Quilt Market and bought some of her new line - of course we had to get sheep fabric! And Gilbert the pig travelled to Market by truck....and made it safely! . . #gilbertgoestomarket #quiltmarket2019 #quiltmarket

Finished up a quick project before I head off to Houston for Quilt Market...definitely have to amp up my cold weather sewing. This is Every Day sweatshirt pattern from @made_everyday - it's becoming my go-to pattern cause my kid needs pockets! This is made from luscious Euro sweatshirt knit that I was being cheap and didn't really buy enough....hence the lack of pattern matching on the pocket. This is a size 10 with 12 length. . . . #everydaysweatshirtmade #sewingforgirls #isew #handmadesweatshirt

A couple of pouches using the Devon Pouch pattern from @sotakhandmade and some Japanese fabric from the shop. One can never have enough pouches, correct??!! . . . #sobakasu_kids #fashionablecats #kokkafabric #japanesefabric #yuwafabric #sotakpatterns #sotakhandmade #bagineer #handmadepouch #urbansewfabricshop #bagmaker

I had to use some of the @rubystarsociety canvas that we have in the shop - I made another Cora Handbag (pattern from @sotakhandmade) - I love the canvas! It's a great weight...heavy, but not too heavy. It would definitely work for garments too. . . . #rubystarsociety #sotakpatterns #sotakhandmade #bagineer #bagmaker #corahandbag #handmadebag #showmethemoda #modafabrics #urbansewfabricshop

More new fabric in the shop. These are Japanese cotton lawn, from @lecien_fabrics - from the Memoire a Paris line. Swipe to see the details of each fabric. I'm a huge fan of lawn for garments, and I know they work for quilting as well. . . . #lecienfabrics #lecien #japanesefabric #cottonlawn #lawncotton #memoireaparis #urbansewfabricshop
