I’m so happy I found your channel, I’ve been learning to sew on my grandma’s ancient sewing machine and she’s decided to buy me my own machine for Christmas. I’m very excited to start making some of my own things soon! 🥰
I don't know why but these videos are my favorite. I study tailoring and I had a problem with fabric because it has to be sustainable and i was watching this and i totally forgot about fabric thrifting.
You're not wrong about the gingham at spotlight. I literally stood in front of all the gingham for 30mins umming and ahhing about which colour/check size/texture. Landed on the most beautiful buttery yellow colour with the teeniest check size gingham in that crinkly texture. So excited to make a little baby dress and headband out of it!
Looks like it's time to call into Spotlight again! I love the giant B&W gingham and the retro print fabric you bought there. I can't wait to see that fabulous blanket made up into a coat. Back in the 80s, I had a duffle coat made from a Navajo blanket design fleece and I loved it! The colours were so rich and the style of coat suited my needs perfectly. Despite having purchase the coat at Myers, I never once saw anyone else wearing one. The patterns you picked up brought back lots of memories too. The ruffled wedding dress in particular as I had a few dresses in a similar style way back when.
The fabric that seemed to scream, “make me into an overall mini dress” was the plaid that you bought from Spotlight. Bib pocket, braces, etc. For summer you could wear little light tops and tees, then winter match it with your roll necks! Loved the linen gingham too! Susan
Hi Janelle. Discovered your channel today. I am hooked! My mother grew up during The Depression and women used whatever type of fabric they could lay their hands on no matter where it came from. I love your take on older patterns. The rusty spotting on the patterns is called "foxing" in the book vintage book trade. I have never seen an iron like yours! Brilliant! Happy sewing!
PLEASE make what you describe as "an OTT 80S taffeta/tulle ballgown dress" from that vintage pattern 😍😍😍 I'm totally feeling that vibe rn and would love to see how you approach it. I've been sewing for almost a year now and find your channel so inspiring (and also reassuring because you are so kind and relatable!!). Greetings from Cape Town and thank you for your wonderful videos! 🧵🧶🪡
Hello, I enjoy watching , just knowing you took fabrics to a mirror to find the best suited, something didn't even think to do ....instead of just buying random pieces 👍 I am loving the blanket , I do hope you do make your coat .....that gave me idea for my granddaughter... So thankyou very much 😊 all the best 💝
Your fabric shopping videos are always lush! 😍 You are so lucky to find so much beautiful stuff. Yesterday I went to a charity shop and found an XXL man's shirt in a lovely lilac striped good quality cotton fabric, which I plan to refashion into a blouse. Nowhere near as easy as using a table cloth or sheet, but very satisfying when it works out 😁 Keep taking us with you when you go on your "op shopping" trips!
Loved your fabric choices.The texture of the blanket you've bought is because of use not bobbling.I have a similar one from my parents,you can leave it as it is or, gently,brush it to give a longer,softer texture. Either way, it'll look gorgeous as a coat or bedspread.Sizes in the past were much smaller than they are now,so,a pattern from the 70's/80's in a size 10 would equate to a size 12/14 today.i love your style and I'm looking forward to your makes.
Great fabrics and patterns you purchased . I can’t believe you found New Look 6266, I’m pretty sure this is the pattern my mum used to make my sister’s bridesmaid dresses for me and my other sister in a heavy peach fabric. I still have the dress in the attic from 1989.
Love your choices and esthetic. In the US we call the large check print you purchased in black and white, buffalo check, an obvious reference to the giant western mammals most at home in Montana, Wyoming and the Plains states. Thought I'd share a bit of regional wardrobe/ fabric nomenclature. 😉 Thanks for the vicarious shopping trip and your including thrifted items. I have vintage sheets and tablecloths waiting for me to pullout my machine. I can't wait to see your custom blanket coat.
Love your selection of fabrics. I shop at spotlight alot and very impressed with their selection of fabrics. Love your video's and can't wait to see your makes. Queensland, Australia 🌺😊🇦🇺
I love all your videos but this one was super! Can't wait for the blanket coat!!! Hey, you could make the pyjamas out of the fabric roll you got.. when you were showing the roll I thought about pj's and then when you showed the pattern, I could totally picture it lol. Great fabrics.. loved them all and of course the patterns! Thanks for sharing Janelle. Oh and YES matching outfits for chrissy!!
Fun finds! I just started sewing this year and use only thrifted fabric. Originally I used thrifted fabric because I was not very good. If the project came out awful, oh well, at least I learned something. I also started with thrifted garments. I cut them apart and used the fabric. Most of my supplies are thrifted. Buttons, bias tape, zippers, zippers and more zippers. I probably have too many zippers! I am so surprised how quickly the supplies accumulated. My fabric stash is almost out of control! Once I found a huge tub and half of a garbage bag of vintage patterns totalling $15. So that's in my stash too. Oh boy.
Dying to know what you will make with the black buffalo check(as we call it here in the Northwest)! I do LOVE that and even have curtains in my laundry room, table runners for the table etc in black buffalo check. So will wait for that in a garment!
What a great idea on using the blanket to make a coat, when you bought it I thought that would make a fleece or a jacket, but your vision for the coat you saw is inspirational x
Hi Janelle. Love your op shopping videos. My first thought when you were flicking through the patterns was about how great they are displayed. I usually just grab a box of patterns and go over to the furniture section and find a chair to sit in while I flip through them when I’m op shopping. My favourite fabric was the one with the stitching detail. Enjoy the rest of you Sunday afternoon.🌸
I love these videos! Every time we come along with you, it's like hanging out with a friend. You have such great taste in fabric and always give me inspiration for my own projects.
Hi Janelle. Love going shopping with you. Just wish we had such lovely op shops over here in South Africa. I really like the black and white gingham fabric, it's adorable and so unique. I'm crazy about the empire waist dress pattern so can't wait for your tutorial. I'm in love with the table cloth, the style and colours are soo eye catching and pretty. Janelle, would you ever consider make a simple easy elasticated straight leg pants with side pockets tutorial in cotton or linen? Thank you for sharing another amazing video. Remain blessed xxx
I love your fabric hauls! I’ve always heard that large gingham called Buffalo plaid or Buffalo check, if you’re ever looking for more of it 😊 Also that blanket would make an amazing bomber jacket!!
I loved the floral fabric the most - so pretty! I noticed that the patterns you purchased were in quite a few different sizes. I would love to hear about how you size up or down when making patterns that are in the wrong size - I'm too scared to work it out for myself at the moment!
I love your videos!! Always amazed by the fabrics you find. When I walk into spotlight, i’m always overwhelmed and never quite know what to do with each fabric. Do you think you could do a intro to fabrics video? Like explaining weights, drape, materials, and what fabric you would use for a dress vs pants vs shirt etc?
Everything is beautiful 😍 We don’t have thrift shops as much interesting in France, this one is so tidy and with much beautiful stuff , love your sélection 👌🏻
Cute colors. Thanks for taking us along with you. If you do make a coat from that blanket please give a detailed tutorial. I would love how to make one
I’m so inspired by you! I’ve never been brave enough to try making clothes on my own but I’m planning on starting this year, your videos have really helped put it into perspective!
I believe the black and white check gingham is also known as Buffalo check or plaid. I was also in Spotlight on Saturday but in Adelaide. All I got was 1.6 metres of a stretch grey, for a maxi skirt. Hubby, however, got a ton of embroidery cotton. No, he's not into embroidery but the thread is perfect for fishing flies which he makes.
I got the same plaid fabric on their 40% off week the colour of mine is whit and light pinky beige I am going to make the Hope dress, can't wait to see what you make.
The big check gingham is called buffalo check here in the USA. Your fabric selection is beautiful but quite a bit higher in price. I really love your videos. I share your love for yellows, mustards and earth tones.❤️
No way I got 2meters of that green and yellow floral print from spotlight last week to. And I planned on making the wrap shirt with Ur pattern with it. Yay now I'm even more excited 😃
Glad to see you out and shopping. The news about Austrailia here in the US sounds like you are all in lockdown. Stay safe out there Janelle! Your sweet creative spirit cheers us.
Aw thanks lovely! We’ve been pretty safe throughout the entire pandemic here in Tasmania (isolation has its benefits sometimes!), but I feel for the other states/countries that have had it really rough 💔
Such lovely fabrics. I do so love the black and white gingham. Can’t wait to see what you make from all. The coat idea I just can’t imagine how you will do it but I am excited to see what it will look like. Really I never thought about out using curtains, sheets, etc. to make clothing. You are so gifted. TFS.
Love watching all your videos, but especially the Op shop ones, I love all the unusual fabrics you find! I always look in the charity shops here in the U.K. for fabric too! 😊
Hey Janelle, I love your video’s and I really enjoy going fabric shopping with you. Quick tip for storing bulky fabrics: get one or two of those vacuum bags (you know the ones where you vacuum seal it with a vacuum cleaner). I use them for my vintage wool blankets since I only use them in the winter.
OMG there's so beautiful fabrics in this shop. You're so lucky. In France, I can't find this kind of large gingham but only really small and classic one.
That blouse pattern would look so good with some of that spotlight gingham! All of those checks were def my favorite. I picked up some for myself for a queens gambit style pinafore for the winter months. Can’t wait to see what you do!
Oh my gosh, we have such similar taste!! I’ve created a smock dress from the orange plaid fabric and love it - such an easy number for summer. I would LOVE to see you make a long tiered skirt with the black check fabric, like the Marle Dusty Skirt 😍😍
I love op-shopping for patterns (I sew costumes) so haven't purchased new patterns in ages. I recently needed a new pattern, and they cost $25 !!!!!! And I thought $5 for a second hand pattern was expensive ! (Most patterns cost 50c to $1). Spotlight is also my go to for fabric.
That circle tablecloth pattern is enchanting! You've inspired me; I got some bedsheets from Goodwill (US op shop) for $1.50 with a stripey rose pattern I've made into a dress for my girlfriend. Also got some thick pink polka dot cloth (4+ metres) for around $6. Not brave enough to get fresh, fancy cloth yet...
Hi Janelle! You could make the Hovea Curve Jacket & Coat Pattern by Megan Nielsen or the all well cardigan coat by All Well Workshop with the blanket. Love All the fábrics ❤️ Here where I Live, we don’t have op shops with fabrics 😞
NGL I think if you had a super light weight bright gingham fabric that puff sleeve/pant "sleep set" could actually be a super cute matching day set. Especially with some nude platform sandals.
I’m so curious about thrifting vintage patterns…what do you do when one has been cut to a size already? I’m brand new to sewing clothes so I have no idea. 😅
I’m so happy I found your channel, I’ve been learning to sew on my grandma’s ancient sewing machine and she’s decided to buy me my own machine for Christmas. I’m very excited to start making some of my own things soon! 🥰
I don't know why but these videos are my favorite. I study tailoring and I had a problem with fabric because it has to be sustainable and i was watching this and i totally forgot about fabric thrifting.
That pale green from Spotlight was lovely.
Your Spotlight was scary tidy! Mine always looks like a bomb went off it it.
You're not wrong about the gingham at spotlight. I literally stood in front of all the gingham for 30mins umming and ahhing about which colour/check size/texture. Landed on the most beautiful buttery yellow colour with the teeniest check size gingham in that crinkly texture. So excited to make a little baby dress and headband out of it!
I always adore your fabric choices! The colors and prints always speak to me. Can't wait to see what you do with the black oversized gingham!!😍😍
Looks like it's time to call into Spotlight again! I love the giant B&W gingham and the retro print fabric you bought there. I can't wait to see that fabulous blanket made up into a coat. Back in the 80s, I had a duffle coat made from a Navajo blanket design fleece and I loved it! The colours were so rich and the style of coat suited my needs perfectly. Despite having purchase the coat at Myers, I never once saw anyone else wearing one.
The patterns you picked up brought back lots of memories too. The ruffled wedding dress in particular as I had a few dresses in a similar style way back when.
I luv it when you go thrifting, I luv the sheet and it was so interesting that you showed your handmade dresses, I luv them. Have a great week
Such beautiful fabric! Thanks for posting!
The fabric that seemed to scream, “make me into an overall mini dress” was the plaid that you bought from Spotlight. Bib pocket, braces, etc. For summer you could wear little light tops and tees, then winter match it with your roll necks! Loved the linen gingham too! Susan
Love all your choice of fabrics!!! The rose sheet would make a beautiful dress. Great selection of patterns too!!!
I absolutely adore the peach bedsheet with the roses! Can’t wait to see what you make with it!
Hi Janelle. Discovered your channel today. I am hooked! My mother grew up during The Depression and women used whatever type of fabric they could lay their hands on no matter where it came from. I love your take on older patterns.
The rusty spotting on the patterns is called "foxing" in the book vintage book trade. I have never seen an iron like yours! Brilliant! Happy sewing!
PLEASE make what you describe as "an OTT 80S taffeta/tulle ballgown dress" from that vintage pattern 😍😍😍 I'm totally feeling that vibe rn and would love to see how you approach it. I've been sewing for almost a year now and find your channel so inspiring (and also reassuring because you are so kind and relatable!!). Greetings from Cape Town and thank you for your wonderful videos! 🧵🧶🪡
Yes to the blanket coat!!
I can’t wait to make it 😍
The blanket looks like the best challenge.
I can’t wait to see you make a coat out of the blanket! I think it will be so beautiful!!

Oh I looove the blanket! The essentials club has a fab video on a drafting & making a blanket coat x
Yes love that video! Will be rewatching it again when I make mine for sure 😍
I love your fabrics especially the blanket.
Yay. You always find the most lovely fabrics.
Love your selection of fabrics. I shop at spotlight alot and very impressed with their selection of fabrics. Love your video's and can't wait to see your makes. Queensland, Australia 🌺😊🇦🇺

That round tablecloth with the fringe would be a cool/unique Christmas tree skirt! 🎄
Ooh that’s so true!
What a great idea on using the blanket to make a coat, when you bought it I thought that would make a fleece or a jacket, but your vision for the coat you saw is inspirational x
That retro 70s blanket is so cool!! Before you said what you wanted to make my idea was a onesie pajama thing. 😅 that would be so funky!
I loved the first green fabric.
Omg I was thinking you should make the blanket into a jacket! It will be sooo cute
Hi Janelle. Love your op shopping videos. My first thought when you were flicking through the patterns was about how great they are displayed. I usually just grab a box of patterns and go over to the furniture section and find a chair to sit in while I flip through them when I’m op shopping.

Thank you for sharing another amazing video. Remain blessed xxx
I never thought to check out the bed sheet section for fabric, great tip!
I love your fabric hauls! I’ve always heard that large gingham called Buffalo plaid or Buffalo check, if you’re ever looking for more of it 😊 Also that blanket would make an amazing bomber jacket!!

I love your videos!! Always amazed by the fabrics you find. When I walk into spotlight, i’m always overwhelmed and never quite know what to do with each fabric. Do you think you could do a intro to fabrics video? Like explaining weights, drape, materials, and what fabric you would use for a dress vs pants vs shirt etc?
Thank you! And thanks for your suggestion, I’ll keep it in mind for a future video 😊
I would also love a video with some tips and tricks to keep in mind when choosing fabric 😊
Everything is beautiful 😍 We don’t have thrift shops as much interesting in France, this one is so tidy and with much beautiful stuff , love your sélection 👌🏻

Lovely to spend time with you as allways, I’m tossing up between loving the sheet and the circular tablecloth. Such fun
Thanks for watching! 🧡
Can’t wait to see the blanket coat when you make it! 😍
I am amazed at how orderly your spotlight is! My local one is always in disarray
I believe the black and white check gingham is also known as Buffalo check or plaid.

Ugh yes! I’d make a coat outta the blanket too! Can’t wait to see it made 🥰
Yay, I’m glad someone else can see my vision for it too! I can’t wait to give it a go 😍
I got the same plaid fabric on their 40% off week the colour of mine is whit and light pinky beige I am going to make the Hope dress, can't wait to see what you make.
Oh my goodness the fabrics you found this time were gorgeous xx
Yes the blanket screams a lovely teddy style long shacket. The large print linen gingham would also make a lovely shacket type coat.
Awesome video Janelle. I ❤️ Spotlight. It’s becoming an obsession! 🤫
I’m obsessed too haha!
Those rose dresses you made were so beautiful! Is there a video about making them? Xx
So very much looking forward to the future-projects video *_* Janelle, your taste in fabric is just impeccable, Thank you for sharing your creativity!
Aw thanks lovely! I can’t wait to share my plans soon x
The gingham fabrics remind me of material in the early 70s, I had a baby doll top made, pink and white squares
The big check gingham is called buffalo check here in the USA. Your fabric selection is beautiful but quite a bit higher in price. I really love your videos. I share your love for yellows, mustards and earth tones.❤️
No way I got 2meters of that green and yellow floral print from spotlight last week to. And I planned on making the wrap shirt with Ur pattern with it. Yay now I'm even more excited 😃
And totally looking forward to that blanket jacket 🙏 I wouldn't of been able to walk outta that shop without either. Keep up Ur amazing work Janelle
i loved the rose table cloth
Yay first like and comment. Love your videos. Happy holidays to all.
Aw thank you! And thanks for watching 🧡
I love all of the fabrics you chose and completely obsessed with the vintage patterns you found!
Love all the colors of your fabric💕👏🏼👍🏻
Thanks Janelle for another lovely video. Have a great week.
Thanks lovely, you too 😄
Yes for the blanket coat!! I’d love to see that!!!
Yay! I cannot wait to give it a try! 😍
Amazing finds! I think the coat will be great in that fabric.
And that shirt pattern makes me think of Ganni and Nina Lee’ s Bakerloo dress and blouse
Glad to see you out and shopping. The news about Austrailia here in the US sounds like you are all in lockdown. Stay safe out there Janelle! Your sweet creative spirit cheers us.
Aw thanks lovely! We’ve been pretty safe throughout the entire pandemic here in Tasmania (isolation has its benefits sometimes!), but I feel for the other states/countries that have had it really rough 💔
That blanket as a coat!!! I am now on the search for something similar its stunning 💛
Such lovely fabrics. I do so love the black and white gingham. Can’t wait to see what you make from all.

I love the hall dress pattern. It is a true fairy tale dress, reminds me of my prom one!

Quick tip for storing bulky fabrics: get one or two of those vacuum bags (you know the ones where you vacuum seal it with a vacuum cleaner). I use them for my vintage wool blankets since I only use them in the winter.
That is such a great idea! Thanks so much x
I'm so jealous of how neat and organized your Spotlight is! I live in Brisbane now but the Hobart store was a nightmare too 😭😭
I love that blanket so much !!!
Well done for 300k!!! I remember watching your 200 and 100 k videos and that seems really recent!
Thank you so much!! 🧡
OMG there's so beautiful fabrics in this shop. You're so lucky. In France, I can't find this kind of large gingham but only really small and classic one.
My local fabric shop has really picked up its game lately, and I’m loving it! 😍
Love you and your creations, loads of love from 🇦🇪
Im so glad I found your channel 😍🙌 Im planning to sew me ame made wardrobe this year 🤩🤩 I get alot of inspiration from you!
Aw yay that’s so nice to hear! Have fun making some dream pieces of your own 😍
That blouse pattern would look so good with some of that spotlight gingham! All of those checks were def my favorite. I picked up some for myself for a queens gambit style pinafore for the winter months. Can’t wait to see what you do!
You should make your matching Christmas outfits out of that amazing fabric that Matt liked too!
Ohhh the ideas you have given me today!
Thank you so much!
I’m glad you found it inspiring x
@@RoseryApparel very inspiring. And I’m in the USA so I LOVE LOVE LOVE the accent.
Oh my gosh, we have such similar taste!! I’ve created a smock dress from the orange plaid fabric and love it - such an easy number for summer. I would LOVE to see you make a long tiered skirt with the black check fabric, like the Marle Dusty Skirt 😍😍
Ooh I love it! Thanks for the suggestion 😍
I believe your black and white gingham is actually buffalo plaid which would explain its large size, just thought you would like to know!
I really like your fabric so much
Your Spotlight had some great fabric! And it was tidy !! I love gingham but can't come at red too much pizza hut in the 80s 🤣🤣
Absolutely LOVE the blanket! That will make a gorgeous coat 💞🇬🇧
Isn’t it amazing! Such a good find 😍🧡
Good morning :) Immediately thought of you when I got a dress during the week -- had frilly cuffs & hem...and *POCKETS*!!!😃
Sounds like the perfect dress 😍
That's my local Spotlight and I have held fabrics up against myself and looked in that exact mirror.
That round tablecloth is gorgeous! Do let us know if you do anything with it or keep as is. 😁
De très jolis patrons avec de magnifiques tissus dénichés, neufs ou anciens.
Hâte de voir vos futures réalisations,

That circle tablecloth pattern is enchanting!
You've inspired me; I got some bedsheets from Goodwill (US op shop) for $1.50 with a stripey rose pattern I've made into a dress for my girlfriend. Also got some thick pink polka dot cloth (4+ metres) for around $6.
Not brave enough to get fresh, fancy cloth yet...
They sound like amazing finds!
Love watching your shopping videos.
Thank you! I’m glad you like them 😊
HI in Hobart, they are building a new Spotlight at the showgrounds, so it will be closer to where I live hooray.
Amazing!!
@@RoseryApparel Can't wait and it is right next door to a Bunnings, what more can you want?
Hi Janelle! You could make the Hovea Curve Jacket & Coat Pattern by Megan Nielsen or the all well cardigan coat by All Well Workshop with the blanket. Love All the fábrics ❤️
Here where I Live, we don’t have op shops with fabrics 😞
NGL I think if you had a super light weight bright gingham fabric that puff sleeve/pant "sleep set" could actually be a super cute matching day set. Especially with some nude platform sandals.
