Hello! April didn’t leave me much free time to blog, but I did make a few things that I’m going to try and share in the coming weeks.

Today I’d like to introduce a new French independent fabric brand: La Modette. I first hear about it a few weeks ago when Sandrine, the designer, posted a call for testers on Thread & Needles. I went to check La Modette’s Facebook page to learn more about it, and was instantly seduced by her joyful fabrics. Here is the teaser we could see on the page:

Aren’t they nice? They’re printed on cotton poplin, and since La Modette’s official website is now up and running, you can order them for yourself. Although the website is in French only, so maybe it’s best if you understand French to order. Especially since the way she works is a little bit different from what we’re used to… It’s all explained (in French) here. There will be more types of fabrics available later: jersey, cotton voile, cotton sateen, polyamid (for swimsuits!)… I love that La Modette offers fun prints in fabrics meant for clothing and made in Europe.

I’ll be back in the coming days with the pictures of the test project I made with one of her nice fabrics…
