Yo!
So I'm taking an "unofficial" independent class on drawing sketches for fashion designs and learning how to sew. So one of my first assignments was to buy some items for a skirt and to buy a sketch book so I could start sketching.
On my way home from the movies I came across, Blick, the art store in Fenway and it was so affordable. So many things in the store was at least 50% off which is awesome for a student like me. I also got a free membership because I'm a student so what more could you ask for!
So for my skirt my teacher told me to buy 2 yrds of Cotton/Linen fabric, 7"-9" zipper to match, and thread to match. I went with a dark Navy blue fabric since they didn't have any black and I went with a dark Navy zipper that was a shade lighter than the fabric so I think I'm just going to use a black zipper and black thread instead. We'll see how it goes.
Btws, the fabric store I went to is called Sew-Fisticated Discount Fabric at 735 Morrissey Blvd in Dorchester, MA. The fabric I bought was only $1.99 per yrd which is awesome and the zipper was 39 cents! What a bargain.
Peace out,
