As I'd mentioned before, I raided the Vancouver location of Gala Fabrics during the last month or so it was open. As far as I know, it did indeed close in the middle of December; I have not been back by it again, but the website says it is now closed. Anyway...
There's what I got. Almost all of it's from Gala Fabrics, the exception being the streaked red knit, which came from Fabrics Etc.
In order, they are:
- A wool jacquard skirt length.
- Bemberg lining for the above.
- A short length of heavy silk twill. I'm not sure what I'll do with this, but I really liked the color and the weight.
- Rayon/silk blend jersey; I have some of the Drape Drape books and this might do nicely for something from one of them.
- The aforementioned streaked red knit, which should become a cardigan.
- Linen blend crinkle gauze, for a summer dress.
- A heavy embroidered organza.
- Crushed stretch velvet with a paisley pattern. It's a dark gray that doesn't scan well at all.
- Heavy Bemberg lining. I will probably use this and some of the others from last month for slips.
- Wool/mohair coating.
- English wool doubleknit.
