I love a bunch of patterns in this issue and have been eyeing the wool jersey dresses, but does anyone know who would carry the fabric? I tried searching online and can’t seem to find the same kind of stuff. Anyone have any ideas??? Could anyone suggest an easier to find, but similar fabric?

I’ve just bought some gorgeous wool jersey from trurofabrics.com (or could be .co.uk) They may ship to Canada. It’s got the most wonderful feel and drape to it and hasn’t shrunk at all in the wash from what i can see. Plan to make one of the tops with a peplum with it . Otherwise alfatex.de is the site that sells fabrics used in the burda mags

Neither seem to ship to Canada. Well, Trurofabrics definately does not. alfatex wasn’t clear, but Canada wasn’t included. Thanks though.

Pants! The pattern should have some sort of guideline for other fabrics eg use fabrics with some body, or stretch fabrics only, as long as you make sure you follow that advice, you can more or less make any garment in whichever fabric you fancy
