Happy Fabric for Pirates reveal day!  Like the broken record I am, I’m super excited to show you this month’s fabric that we shipped.  It’s deliciously soft, a gorgeous print AND perfect for this time of year when the weather doesn’t know what it wants to do!

Here are the fabric details:

Yummy” Thermal Knit Width: 58/60″ GSM: 180.00 Material: 94% POLYESTER 6% SPANDEX

I decided to be boring and use the same pattern I’ve been sewing basically every F4P ever, ha.  Am I shocking you by making another Favorite Tee top?  Probably not.  BUT, I did take it up a slight bit by adding a braided neckline.  I’ve been wanting to do this on a shirt for a while now (for no reason in particular) and it felt like a better time than any to try it out!  These little touches help make things a little spicier and fun, don’t you think?

I’ve played with my fair share of thermal fabrics, but this is the first time I’ve used this exact base.  And I kinda love it.  I actually made something for my entire family with it, as well as this adorable teeny tiny baby romper for my co-worker’s soon-to-be-here baby boy!  Isn’t it just the sweetest? My co-worker’s husband is the principal at Bennett’s school, so it felt right to make a special school spirit outfit for their little one.  Squee!  Imagine the amount of outfits Louis would have had, had I been apparel sewing at that stage in my life.  Maybe it’s a good thing I started this journey a little later than that, ha.

Of course, the print and color we chose is great for St. Patrick’s Day, but I think it’s pretty stellar for all times of year.  I’m not nearly as into tie dye as my kiddo is, but I love it all the same.  And this is kind of a down-played tie dye.  Enough so that Bennett will even wear it, and he’s not really a print kinda guy.

What do you think?  Do you dig this month’s fabric?  What would you have made with it?
