.Nani Iro from Miss Matatabi.

Just wanted to share with you some beautiful Nani Iro prints I received from Miss Matatabi during the week.
They are so dreamy that I couldn't keep them all to myself. These are all double gauze - except the coral floral on beige background...that one's a brushed cotton. You can't really tell in the pictures, but it's got little metallic bits through it. So pretty.
Nani Iro fabrics are by far my favourites. I'm sucked in every time they bring out a new season. And the double gauze is perfect for apparel sewing and really lovely to wear.
These fabrics were purchased from the gorgeous Miss Matatabi Etsy store. Frances gets the entire range in each season, it's rare to find another store that stocks the entire range but makes the decision of choosing just a few prints very difficult! If only I were a quilter, than I could stick to fat quarters and get a bit of everything. My usual minimum cut is 1.5 metres though if I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the fabric - that way I can be mostly guaranteed that I have enough fabric to sew something for myself.
Happy Sewing! I'm off to cut into some fabric now :)

Gorgeous fabrics but yes it is pricy when you have to buy enough material to sew clothes with. I always try to have a project in mind when buying fabric so that I don't over/under buy but sometimes you just gotta have it.
