#SewAngelicThreads: A Butterick dress in Rose patterned floral crepe

ABOUT ME

I am Angela and I love to sew. I started sewing as a child and by the time I was a teenager I was wearing the very latest fashions to go out in. All me-made. I am passionate about reducing the amount of textiles sent to landfill, and encourage you to repurpose fabrics and clothes I started this blog in order to have a way in which to pass on my gained knowledge, and my professional knowledge to you, Sewing is empowering, you can save money by making items, make money by selling then, You can pass your knowledge on to others. What is there not to love? Interestingly I am a direct descendant of the Flemish weavers who came over to England in the 1300's. I find that fascinating especially as most of my family from as far back as I can trace are somehow involved in the manufacturing of fabric . . I have a degree in tailoring with a special interest in WW2 fashion.

A Butterick dress in Rose patterned floral crepe

A Minerva.com post

The background is black and the print is full blown Rose's. This woven fabric hangs and drapes very well and it has a 1940's feel to it.

This fabric is so beautiful, it is a linen look crepe by Lady McElroy
