Bearissima Swiss Batiste 30% OFF!!!

Our mid-winter heirloom fabric sale continues..... All of these sale fabrics are first cuts, that means they are not remnants. They will be cut fresh and wrapped in Heirloom Naturals Acid Free Tissue for you.


Bearissima Swiss Batiste - Ivory 30% Off

Bearissima, from Bear Threads Ltd, is the creme de la creme of Swiss batistes. It's perfect for so many heirloom projects, everything from baby garments to ladies blouses.

It is a dream to work with and is absolutely beautiful. It is approximately 55 inches wide, giving you about 23% more fabric per lineal yard than the 45 inch fabrics. See our fact sheet on Choosing a Swiss Batiste For Your Project.

This is a very nice soft, subtle shade of Ivory. (It is not a creme or yellowish color at all.)

Now's your chance to stock up on the Ivory Bearissima at 30% off the regular retail price.


Mettler Thread 60 wt - Ivory 30% Off

You'll need thread to go with that Bearissima. Use the 60 wt Mettler thread for heirloom sewing by machine on batiste and other lightweight fabrics.


French Insertion Lace - White 20% Off

Our most popular French insertion lace looks beautiful with the Ivory Bearissima Swiss Batiste. At 20% off, you only pay $2.72 a yard.




Bearlin - Pink 30% Off

Bearlin, also from Bear Threads, Ltd, is a beautiful blend of Irish Linen and Swiss Cotton. It looks very much like 100% linen but it is softer and does not wrinkle as much!



The sample dress in the photo (the dress is under construction) is made with the pink Bearlin. The dress is hanging on a dark blue dress form, allowing you to see the sheerness of the fabric. A white slip will be worn under the completed dress.

This is a very high quality heirloom fabric. It too, is wide, giving you more fabric per lineal yard than the narrower, 45 inch wide fabrics. We want you to try this beautiful Bearlin and so we are offering it to you at 30% off the regular retail price. It is perfect for spring dresses.


Reminder - Previous Sales are Ending Soon

The 30% off on the Swiss Wool Challis and the Swiss Flannel ends this weekend.


The 25% off on the Olfa Rotary Essentials Kit also ends this weekend. The kit includes an Olfa 12"x18" rotary mat, 18mm rotary cutter, 45mm rotary cutter and an Olfa Rotary Brochure.

I have 2 of these, one by the sewing machine and the other by the serger. I especially love the 18mm rotary cutter, it cuts around the small corners and curves of tiny baby patterns easily.
