Fabric from Fabric Mart arrived a couple of days ago. Have not ordered any fabric from them in some time. I am happy with all of the items except the green/brown border print. My fault for not reading the description more thoroughly. I read cotton and assumed a medium weight fabric, this is more like cotton voile or gauze. I will put aside for warmer weather.
My favorite pieces are the navy and white ottoman jacquard and the denim blue and white herringbone polyester fabric that was a pre-cut item. I have to thank Carolyn of Diary of a Sewing Fanatic for a picture post on Instagram of her blouse that was a pre-cut paisley fabric that got me to take a look at FM site.

This is my new project. I am in the process of altering the pattern for my usual adjustments and determining the best way to make a FBA with a piece pattern for the front upper bodice.
Both fabric and pattern were purchased this year. The print fabric is a lovely rayon jersey knit from EOS and the solid black is a bamboo knit from Cali Fabrics.
It feels good to have a project planned. More later!
