Fantastic fabric projects from bloggers

by modes4u July 13, 2014

In the last months we teamed up with many great blogs again and they made amazing apparel with our fabrics.

Tilly and the Buttons sewed a beautiful skirt with our black echino stag fabric. This fabric is really popular in our shop and justifiably so when you see how great the finished clothes look.

The blog Para Mi Peque Con Amor used our organic birch knit fabrics to make some great children’s shirts. Due to their stretch and soft feel Jersey fabrics are really suitable for children’s clothes.

Tutorial for a baby and toddler bean bag by Straight Grain

by modes4u March 12, 2014

We teamed up with the sewing blog Straight Grain from Belgium for an awesome project. We provided An with some of our organic canvas fabrics by birch and she sewed an amazing baby and toddler bean bag with them. As Canvas is quite robust and thicker than regular cotton, it is quite suitable for heavy-duty items.

The best thing: You can find the tutorial and free patterns on the blog Straight Grain.

In the current issue of the big German sewing magazine burda style we are featured in two different categories.

But our fabrics were also used in an adorable series about spring rain clothes, for example for sewing some cute children’s shorts with our organic birch polka dot fabric.
