That could be it. I love Ikea fabric too. It's a little harder to sew than Japanese cotton tho' due to the "rougher" texture.jane phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17982232223532908863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193403358365368030.post-18033255185420396412010-02-23T11:30:54.322+08:002010-02-23T11:30:54.322+08:00Hey Jane, just wanted to drop a note and say a HUG...Hey Jane, just wanted to drop a note and say a HUGE thank you for your list!! I ended up staying at Ibis Bencoolen by pure chance anyway and found out it's right beside Queen Street! What are the odds of that?! Unfortunately it was closed the 3 days I was there... Went to People's Park but it was too early and they weren't open ( I was there at 10am ). Hahaha... maybe it wasn't meant to be... so I hoofed it to Ikea and bought some fabrics so it's all good! But still, THANK YOU so much for the list.Piphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07334639041378909276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193403358365368030.post-17456426629923654632010-01-20T16:05:16.693+08:002010-01-20T16:05:16.693+08:00Hi Phyllis

Malin Textiles at People's Park Complex (I'm sure you have been here before but just in case)<br />#02-1134 & #02-1122 run by sisters. You can go to their fan page at facebook.

When I was last in Singapore everyone had recommended People's Park so that was the only place I found. I guess you really have to look to find novelty places with good quality pieces, even if they're offcuts haha.. <br />Hope to see more from you, think you're really talented!Piphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07334639041378909276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193403358365368030.post-29027665506686162042009-12-16T12:50:10.944+08:002009-12-16T12:50:10.944+08:00Hi Phyllis, thank you.

I bought it in S'pore from a fabric importer - the only piece available and it was less than a yard! It is seriously overpriced but worth the money. Here's a link to Lecien agents http://www.lecien.co.jp/en/hobby/agents.htmljane phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17982232223532908863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1193403358365368030.post-26366070773269489952009-12-16T12:28:32.800+08:002009-12-16T12:28:32.800+08:00Hi Jane, love the bags you sew, how inspiring!

Where can i get fabric like that?<br /><br />Also wanted to thank you for the tute on recessed zipper. It ended my long standing feud with a zipper issue! :))Piphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07334639041378909276noreply@blogger.com
