I’m excited for this challenge! I’ve had a piece of Pendleton wool for 30 years or more that I just couldn’t bring myself to cut. My mind is saying Jasika blazer now, so here I go! Let the fun begin!

@kathygann7632 28 дней назад

I also have a beautiful Pendleton wool piece. I gained lots of weight from medications, but now I’ve moved to Phoenix and don’t wear wool blazers.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Yay! Get it started and tag me when you post your pictures on instagram to enter to win one of the prizes!

I have some silk my cousin brought me from Prague when she was there performing. It’s a beautiful embroidered fabric. I’ve decided on the Be Mine Balloon Sleeve Top from Pattern Emporium because it has minimal seams.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

That sounds like a great idea to show off that beautiful fabric. If you post a pic on instagram, be sure to tag me so I can see it (and you can enter to win!)

@kieker_sews7371 27 дней назад

Would really appreciate you sharing your Lutterloh experience - The set looks amazing - but I cannot find any source online that shows how to make fitted pants with the system. Also loving this challenge .....off to the stash!

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Stay tuned! Lutterloh coming soon!

@nozztozz 27 дней назад

Thanks for including us who don’t have Instagram in the excitement 😉

@stash_hub 26 дней назад

Really excited to be sponsoring this amazing challenge! I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone makes - I think this theme is going to generate the most stunning output as everything will be made in a special fabric 😍

@TomKatStitchery 26 дней назад

@stash_hub Thanks for the prize donation! There are going to be some beautiful garments out there!!

@kathygann7632 28 дней назад

I made a dress similar to yours that had the same shape sleeves, but they were elbow length, and it looked great. Maybe cut the green one with shorter sleeves. Still a dress, but a very different look.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Stay tuned to see what it transforms into!

@denisem9407 26 дней назад

That Lutterloh pattern will look beautiful in that fabric. Can't wait to see it made up.

@TomKatStitchery 26 дней назад

Stay tuned all through September and see how it turns out!

@maryjopreti2627 28 дней назад

I don’t usually do contests but this one is a good motivator for me. I have a dear friend who gave me some scarves and African Wax print fabric that I’ve been scared to cut into. A second option would be: I have a set of quilting fat quarters Simply Delightful by Sherri and Kelsi Moda that I thought I would use for a quilt. I’ve always been scared to cut into it. I’m not quilting as much anymore so I’m thinking of turning it into a quilty vest. I’m jazzed about both projects.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Both of those projects sound wonderful! I've been seeing lots of quilted jackets and vests lately!

@DoloresDeeBodnar 9 дней назад

OMG, this is so much fun Whitney. I'm almost done with my choice , can't wait till post my make later today or tomorrow. Enjoying the vlogers so much fun to and I subscribed to a few of them. 😊

@TomKatStitchery 8 дней назад

I'm so glad you are having fun following along! I find myself oogling those beautiful fabrics and being inspired to sew more!!

@jenniferandrew3373 28 дней назад

This is so timely! I'm staring at some shot silk that I think would be a beautiful lining for the coat I'm making. And second guessing. Decision made.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Oh that will feel so good inside the coat and make it so luxurious!

@jdt2840 20 дней назад

What a great idea this challenge. I have so many precious fabrics that I almost don’t know what to sew. I have been saving them for something perfect….

@TomKatStitchery 19 дней назад

There's no time like TODAY to make that perfect thing!

@helenlorah43 28 дней назад

Sounds like a great challenge! Do you plan on showing how to redesign the facing into a lining for the dress? Thank you so much.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Stay tuned to see what I decide to do!

@kathygann7632 28 дней назад

At one time I bought a sewing app and input all my fabric with pictures, length, content, etc. it took me forever. Then when my computer updated its system, the app would no longer work. I was devastated. I’d also input 50 years of patterns.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Bummer!

@sharonnickels2788 27 дней назад

I bought some off white wool in hong Kong way back in 1988. Still haven't cut into it. So maybe this is a great challenge for me.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

This is the perfect time! There's no time like TODAY!! I'd love to see what you make!

@madebykarenmarie 24 дня назад

Such a great challenge! I am in. Thinking I’ll use my precious denim.. 😊

@TomKatStitchery 22 дня назад

Yes! make it into something you can enjoy!!

@myraalkins5305 26 дней назад

Whitney, have you ever tried to line the Closet Core Pietra pants. I’m doing that for the Precious Fabric Challenge I thinks once I get the front leg together I can use that as a pattern for the front lining. Same for the back. Any suggestions?

@TomKatStitchery 26 дней назад

I have not lined that pattern but I do have a tutorial on how to line pants: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wnxNIsczrsc.html

@myraalkins5305 25 дней назад

@@TomKatStitchery thanks. This gave me a good refresher. Now I just have to decide if I’m going to eliminate the elastic back waistband ( I found a tutorial where someone did it) and add either a side zip which I saw you do on your daughter’s Pietras or change it to a back zip. A little worried about the back being too bulky with a lining if it is gathered.

@angiemcconnell9070 27 дней назад

You have really inspired me! I have some fabric from my Think Pink sewscription box that has been just hanging out on my shelf….I decided to make the LN Timbre. I usually make a wearable muslin, but since LN fits me pretty well and going off the finished garment measurements, I decided to just go for it. If it doesn’t fit, I have more TP fabric I haven’t used yet.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Wonderful! The Timbre has become one of my favorite dresses and I think you will enjoy this quick sew! And most importantly, get that beautiful fabric off the shelf and onto your body! And don't forget to enter for prizes!

@ftortorici 27 дней назад

I'm so excited. I have a piece I've been holding on to. Knit. So I definitely need to do my muslin first. LOL. Now that Luderlow system I'm so looking forward to seeing your video on that. I ran across that just before you started talking about it. So I'm waiting.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

Stay tuned for more on Lutterloh!

@victoriahannah1633 27 дней назад

Looking forward to the tutorials coming up. I did some elastic pants and simple type of shift dress with the Luterloh system. I did the pants muslin first and found for me to use my finished measurements (ease) worked better. However they required very little fit. I was quite pleased with them. Can you find if we can order more up to date patterns from them?

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

I would check their website directly for all their product offerings

@dawnjeffersramstad8401 28 дней назад

Love this challenge! Because I am sewing a module for an upcoming vacation, I didn't think I could add this. But as I listened I realized 2 of those tops--a dressy dinner blouse & a sweater knit pullover-- met the guidelines. Both fabrics were purchased just because I loved them.Thanks Whitney! PS Your trees look exactly like the well tended trees from Le Vesinet, France where we lived 35 years ago. They a much too straight to be pickles.😂

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

I would love to see what you make! Be sure to tag me if you post them ( and enter to win a prize!)

I'm looking forward to following along with your journey through the Precious Fabric Challenge. Thank you for everything you do!

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

You are so welcome!

@alisonwilliams3806 28 дней назад

Great challenge, I just have to make up my mind which pattern & fabric to use. I will make a twirl first to ensure the fit. At the moment making dresses for project dress a girl 2024 - made five last year so want to double that this time. 😊

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

That is an awesome challenge too!

@rachellynncreates2703 27 дней назад

Oh my… I have this fabric that my daughter got me for Christmas and I really have been worried that it wouldn’t be perfect.

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

I hope this inspires you to take the leap and make something beautiful!

@aprilsblanding 27 дней назад

that silk is GORGEOUS!!!!!! The trees do look like pickles though lol!!

@TomKatStitchery 27 дней назад

You and Jenni think alike with the pickle trees.🤣

@stephaniecruz8260 26 дней назад

@lynngates1662 27 дней назад

Gosh, I would be afraid to sew with that, too 😍 it's Gorgeous!! Greens have been my favorite food group haha. I'm planning on picking something for this challenge, actually I may be already working on it haha. It was one of those "It's Time" decisions that spontaneously happened all by itself Saturday. The fabrics were flying! 🙃

@TomKatStitchery 26 дней назад

Isn't it fun to dive into your stash with a new purpose???

@lynngates1662 26 дней назад

@@TomKatStitchery Well put! 😉 And I realized that the satiny lawn that I had folded up with it for the lining was one of my first on-line fabric buys that I loved an just couldn't find the right shirt pattern for... so win win. 😍 (and #2fromstash in one project)
