I have just been to the post-Christmas fabric sales and bought some lovely synthetic material that has an all-over crochet-style pattern - many holes large and small!
At $5 a metre I got plenty so can experiment a bit. I will not be able to use the same material for any facings or bindings - too many holes! I sewed up a small piece and that was successful - so I won't need to use stabiliser tape on the seams.
Anyone got any tips for me about facings/bindings please? I don't want to line any top or jacket I make with this material (the skirt will be of course!). I would lose the holey effect on the sleeves and I would like to wear a loose open cardigan type jacket of this material over solid material tops.
Thanx people - and happy new year.
