I ordered some tricot fabric from Fabric.com which arrived yesterday. My next dress project using this Butterick pattern suggests lining using tricot fabric. Not having any in my lining collection, I order four different shades of this fabric. Two of the items are very soft and 108" wide; the other two are little different in feel and one side is rather shiny and the other side is matte and feels less soft and they are 54" wide. All are labeled the same as 40 denier. I have not used this type fabric in years and years; perhaps never actually. This will be a new sewing experience.
From Fashionista Fabrics I ordered the February Burda Style magazine as I like some of the patterns others have been sewing or blogging about from this issue. I also ordered some white with navy polka dots in cotton from the same online store. It is lovely fabric but somewhat thinner/lighter in texture than I had thought it would be. So I am now rethinking what I will make from it.
Still waiting on the two patterns from Pamela's Patterns.
It is always fun getting these packages.

It is so much fun getting sewing goodies in the mail. I'm thinking of restarting my Burda subscription.
