Houndstooth information

I've gotten several questions about this houndstooth that happened to be sitting on the top pile in a drawer during my last post. It is actually a recent buy from Hancock Fabrics. I think I bought it just a month or two back when they got a bunch of new fall fabrics in. They are hard to come across, right? It has great texture and a somewhat large weave. If you are near a Hancock's, go get yourself some!!! I've currently paired it with this jacket from last year's December Burda, but that's not set in stone.

  1. Very cool fabric!! I have a Talbots skirt from last year in similar fabric - Mom has the matching jacket! Can't wait to see what you make! Red piping would be cute. Or, black leather piping. Have you ever worked with leather piping?

  4. I purchased this fabric from Hancock's as well. I love the size of the pattern and plan on making a coat for the winter.
