Sew Big Fabrics Mish-Mash Fantasy Stash

Sew Big Fabrics just opened the Mish Mash Fantasy Stash Round. It's full of fun prints for Halloween or really any day. I for one am absolutely in love with the moon phase border prints and the all over print. I was sent a yard of the moon phase double border print on bamboo lycra and a fat half of jet black sparkles on cotton lycra.


I knew these would go great together. And just had to make a peplum top.


I'm a huge Astronomy nerd and moon phase designs always get my attention. The jet black sparkles could go with just about anything and would look amazing all on their own too.


The bamboo lycra has such great drape and the cotton lycra is nice and thick.


Since I only used the border portion of my yard of the moon phase double border print, I just had to use the rest of the yard which is a gorgeous purple galaxy like design with stars.


The purple color in the design match the Grape Purple Tactel from Zenith & Quasar.


I was also sent a fat half of the Bloody Snakeskin. The sample I sewed was printed at the wrong scale.


Here's a photo to show the correct scale.

Sew Big Fabrics Fruit Splash!

The Sew Big Fabrics Fruit Splash Round is full of fun fruit themed prints. All prints are available on a variety of bases. My favorite base is the Bamboo Lycra. When I saw the Monochrome Pineapple Purple Gradient print, I knew I needed to make a maxi dress with it.


I may not wear many dresses, but I do love a maxi dress. They are so comfortable to wear and they keep my legs hidden.


I used the leaf bodice and full back from the George + Ginger Mix It Up Dress for my maxi dress. I love bamboo lycra, but bamboo does not have the best recovery so I lined my bodice with athletic brushed poly. This will help prevent the bodice from sagging as I wear it over the course of the day. 


I then just added a gathered skirt to it that was the appropriate length for my height.


This Pineapple Print is so fun and tropical. It makes me want to go on a beach vacation ASAP. The Bamboo fabric will help keep me cool no matter how hot & humid it is. Perfect for the beach.


Here's a closer look at the Pineapple print. The pineapples are done in a geometric design and look so cool on top of the purple gradient.


 I really love the leaf bodice, but do find that it is a little low cut on me.


The Fruit Splash Round is open through May 6th. Here's a look at a few of the other fun prints at preorder.
