I’ve been really into shades of blue this spring. Here are some of the fabrics I’ve been eyeing this month. I paired them with some Seamwork patterns to get your ideas flowing.

This reversible cotton jacquard from Fabric Godmother would be great for the Easton jacket. The best thing about this fabric is that you don’t need to line it; just bind the seams.

I love this 5-wale corduroy from Sewing Studio. It’s such a great shade of navy. I just finished filming a skirt that uses wide-wale corduroy like this, and I’m really into it right now. It would look great with the Leonora skirt

You’ll have to act quickly for this deadstock Liberty viscose lawn from Sew Me Sunshine. They have such amazing deadstock fabrics, and they sell out fast! This would look great on the Danielle blouse.

Sevenberry Kasuri Sakura Cotton from Rick Rack. I just sewed my Dara blouse in another Sevenberry fabric, and I love this Robert Kaufman classic.

You can sew so many Seamwork projects with rayon challis, like this floral challis from Style Maker Fabrics. But the Frankie dress would be particularly fun in this print.

Textured cotton lawn from LA Finch Fabrics. This vintage deadstock would make a lovely Aims blouse.
