Sew by Sew has a 20 Pound box! and Yes please do the one from Mood. I'm living vicariously through your fabric purchases.
I just looked this up - I'm definitely going to look into purchasing one!
I order from Fabric Mart way too much. And I must say their packaging always is charmingly hilarious. I feel like it's someone's very determined uncle in the packing department making use of whatever he can find on hand. But he gets the job done in his own way! 😂
The very determined uncle scenario is making me cackle! OMG!!! LOLOL
😂😂😂
I think Fabric Mart gives you a lot more for your money. All usable big pieces of fabric. I love Fabric Mart.
I agree, it's a lot for a fair value.
Linen is great for night wear - it stands up really well for a long long time.
thanks!
It's funny how different people like different things! The pink polka dots I would have no use for. The linen I love! Haha 😂
LOL - that's the beauty of art/sewing and fashion!
Glad you did the unboxing from Mood as well (saw that video first). Although the linen isn't your ideal piece, come summer and it's hot, it would make an adorable little floaty dress, accessorized with black sandals, black jewelry, and a little black bag. Or, you could make a nice top for Joe. You could make a Rhapsody Blouse from Love Notions patterns and go with the boho look (black hoops would look really cute with it), and a wicker purse! Personally, I appreciate the economical packaging from Fabric Mart. I'm careful with the scissors as I open the bag, but it's so much less cumbersome than a box that I have to break down. I use the bag that the fabric comes in as a trash can liner or scrap catcher while I'm sewing. Enjoy! Can't see what you make. So glad that I found your channel (I see you're getting more and more subscribers, too. CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🙌🏽👏🏽🙌🏽💪🏾)
Thanks for the ideas!
Raven because if this video, I bought a mystery box from Fabricmart. The haberdashery bundle was gone. My fabrics came today and I love all of them.
Hey Sharon! Happy to be a positive influence 😁 I hope you enjoy your bundle!
That linen, you get to decide which side is the right side. Use the side you like!
So true!!
Or dye it to a cuter color, or darker cooler where you can’t see the paisley as much.
I buy a mystery bag or two everytime they have them for 9.99 and randomly through out the year . It helps supplement for pretest and Muslins
nice!! Thanks for watching!
Having a singular button different from the rest is such an interesting idea! Now I'm feeling more craft about my buttons with no pairs.
YAY!
Oh my gosh I'm impressed by this mystery "box". I never wanted to do them because I am picky with my fabric but now you make me want to get one lol. I would totally make pjs from that linen fabric.
You are so welcome! You should go for it!
I buy fabric from Fabric Mart all the time and I love them. Awhile back I bought a 10 yard mystery box, while the fabrics were nice and the box was varied, I won't be doing it again. I am not sewing for anyone else so I do better buy their clearance fabrics since I can pick the colors and fabrics.
I might buy the lace bundle, it looks really versatile.
Totally with you on that notions bundle!!!! JACKPOT
YASSSS! I'd buy it again and again.
The needles alone made that haberdashery bundle WELL worth it! I'll have to keep an eye out for when they release more. I had a good experience with the $3 Bag O' Buttons from Cali Fabrics. Lots of sets of buttons so that you can actually use them for projects, and they're pre-sorted into gold/silver, black, and white buttons, so less random. Would love to see a Mood Fabrics mystery box!
I love how this $3 button bag sounds - esp the organization!
I just got that tan paisley to make my husband a shirt for vacation this June! I thought that the fabric was nice and even though it said dry clean only, I washed it on a delicate cold wash! Dried low temp for a short while and then hung it until totally dry. Hope this helps a little! I love your channel!💕🙂
That is awesome! I'm planning to make Joe a shirt as well.
That was some pretty good stuff! I think they gave more than fair value and this video would make me more likely to take a chance on Fabric Mart mystery boxes...except I already have too much fabric...the mystery is what am I going to do with everything I already have?!?
the gray would make a cute cape. Use the paisley as a dressy blouse or flowy dress. wear with black or gray. So very classy. T pins are also used to secure sofa covers along the seams.
did not know that about the T-pins. Thanks for the tip.
I really liked the unboxing and thought it was worth the money easily. I just watched the Mood box and that was impressive. I may have to take a chance too. It is fun to watch your reactions to the fabric, and I like the same ones you do. Please do more.
Thanks for watching!
I bought the random buttons from Fabric Mart years ago.
Nice!!
I normally love my FM mystery boxes. I’ve had a few items not be what I wanted but for the most part I have loved them. I currently have one on order and am looking forward to seeing it.
Oooh - I hope you get some good finds!
Raven, new subscriber here. You can use the linen for a short sleeve shirt and shorts set. It is HEAVENLY in the hot summer months. This video was and you are lovely. Im a novice quilter and about to sew up my first pillow finish for some counted cross stitch that i slowly got done. Thanks!!😊
Thanks for subscribing. Love the idea of a shorts set.
😮 when I first heard the buttons fall, it sounded like broken glass. But I was laughing to myself right afterwards, like why would there have been anything glass in that bundle? 😂 🍹
I would love to see a MOOD unboxing! 😍
Sorry - didn't mean to cause a panic LOL. The Mood unboxing is coming soon!
I like the lace appliqué you held up on your sweatshirt-that'd be cute!❤ love the spontaneity of this vlog😂 you crack me up
Thank you!! 😊
Thanks for sharing!!! I’ve always wanted to try one!! You got some pretty nice things! 😃
You should! Thanks for watching!
Such a fun video I got a mood Box a few years ago definitely better packaging there. I think I'll try a mystery box again now. Thanks for sharing
yes, gotta try them out!
Yes, I love this type of video. I would love to see you do a Mood mystery box too! I really like what you got. I also order from fabric mart fairly regularly and I agree that the packaging def needs improvement lol. Great video as always and thanks for sharing
The Mood box is on order :)
I like your enthusiasm ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Not too bad. I absolutely LOVE the pink polka dot fabric! All those seam rippers and needles are great too!
Thanks for watching Grace!
That hot pink! Yes! The sweater knit would be nice for the true bias Nikki top. What a fun box.
Thank you Heather!!
Love these types of videos! Would love to see mood fabric bundle vid. ❤
Coming soon!
Love all those fabrics! $20 for all of that is such a great deal!
I know right!? Can't beat it.
Love the mystery box!! A Mood box would be amazing!!
Yay! Thanks for watching! - the mood one is on order :)
Yes, I love watching mystery box vlogs, both fabric and yarn. Please do the Moo mystery box. I have always wanted to know what one of their mystery boxes is filled with, as in: types of fabric, yardage, style, etc.
Thanks for watching - just ordered the mood one!
Ahhhh! It is SO FRUSTRATING when companies jam stuff in a poly mailer like that! I recently got an order of fabric packaged like that… you are almost guaranteed to accidentally damage the fabric opening it or getting damaged going through the mailing system 🫣
This was a good video. This month, I bought the button bundle, the haberdashery bundle and two bundles of the zippers. I am very happy with my purchase.
Thats awesome Vanessa!
I did a 10lbs from Moods and got about 10 pieces and love most of them I’ll definitely do it again,your was great 👍🏿 thanks for sharing!
thanks for watching!
Oh I'm getting that haberdashery bundle lol that's amazing
yes!!! Best investment in a while. :)
That haberdashery bundle was a gem! I need to get me one of them
Yes, it was my favorite!
Great,fun vlog! I would love to see a Mood mystery box reveal.
Coming soon!
I like all of the fabric choices. I'd turn the linen into a dress with extra design feature. Since it's so plain, the design would stand out.
Thanks - that's a cool idea.
Nice haul. I like them all. Pink polka is the best
Thank you 😊
Beautiful kitty
Thank you! 😊
I really enjoyed this video. I may try out the haberdashery bundle. I have enough miscellaneous fabrics (that I poorly curated myself 😐), so I can't take a chance on that right now. 🙂 I hope to get a chance to meet you at Atlanta Frocktails!
Thanks for watching! See you at Frocktails!
Yes, do more mystery boxes
noted :)
Bottoms would be. Great for arts and crafts.
I live your videos ❤
thank you so much!
The linen paisley could be used with the wrong side out. I did that with one that was a floral with a background outside my color pallet. The wrong side was a nice muted shade.
Great idea - that's honestly how I first saw it out the bag. I might consider it.
I see the linen as a Nice lightweight robe kimono style, or an apron
Ahh - not sure if it's enough fabric for a kimono style but probably a good apron or shirt!
I'm seeing a 2nd hoochie daddy suit for joe with the Paisley linen
LOL - that's a cool idea!!
Yes do a Mood Box
Coming soon!
Do the mood one!
on the way ;)
Yes, do a mood box
Coming soon!
Nice! What skills do you have to have to get started in tailoring at David’s bridal?
Honestly I think they just want you to know how to sew. 🤣 These types of jobs are hard to fill
Of course we think you should do a Mood mystery box 📦 😊
haha - just ordered it. :)
Oh, I’ve been looking at those bundles on Fabric Mart site but had not ordered yet. Just went over to the site and there are no haberdashery bundles anymore😢 That bundle was 🔥 tho
I just saw that they sold out - hopefully they bring them back. I definitely encourage you to get one.
Please do a Mood box!
Coming soon!
The cream spot fabric would be cute pajamasthe floral on black would be cute overlay. How do you make a buttonhole for that button?
The pj idea is making the wheels turn .... love this idea!
Pink. It's all about the pink.....PINK!
LOL - right?!
