Bags and bags of polyester fabrics..

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
just found their way into my possession, these might be old enough to be vintage but are in new condition. I need some ideas for creative things to do with all this! There are all different weights, textures. Some are light, drapy and silky, some are med. weight, some are thick and almost like a sweater-type material. Halloween costumes are definitely on the list. It sews up really easy, my machine likes it! But it doesn't press worth a darn, it kind of has a mind of its own.

Wide leg lounge pants. I like the Amy Butler pattern for them. They sew up quick, and look great in "quirky" or odd fabrics. I've sewed them in everything from cotton to jersey to polyester. And they're super comfy to lounge around in due to how wide they are - lots of room for air circulation, regardless of fabric type.

The fabrics sound just beautiful and bet once you figure out what you do with them, each piece will be just fantastic. :
