This video was so great! The portion on pattern matching was a gem! And I think the fabric is beautiful and very helpful with different colored wrong side.
I like the fabric. It’s in a color way that wouldn’t compliment me at all, but I can appreciate the design. I am obsessed with that blue pocket stay!! Don’t ask me why…it’s just a very pleasing contrast 💙
This fabric is brilliant 😍 I love it so much and now want several things made in it!
I think the floral fabric is fantastic for these pants. Excellent choice!
Sian from Kittenish Behavior did a pretty big collection using Cobra Corsage. I think she had it in lots of different colors too. Very cute!
Love the pants and loved the pattern matching chapter! Can’t wait to make these!
