Made by a Fabricista: December Denim

Hi Guys! I've been so obsessed with denim this season that I couldn’t help but feature this denim two piece look created from Fabric Mart denim collection as my December Fabricista Feature. Denim is one of those year round fabrics that provide versatility, comfort and style. It never goes out of season and just about everything looks good in denim!

This particular fabric is a heavier denim that holds structure and shape very well. With this fabric I drafted and used my newest pattern that will be releasing soon the Alba Skirt pattern and the Ava Cropped Jacket!

Seeing as this denim is great for structure and shape I thought it would pair great with the pleated detail these two patterns feature. Although these two patterns can be created in a medium to lighter weighted woven denim or twill fabric, I love the structure that the heavier weight pulls off.

I used Mettler threads denim doc with this heavier weight denim because it is strong and sturdy. Its also great to use heavier denim needles with these type of projects since the fabric is so thick. This fabric sews up quite well and I loved the way these pieces came out. The best part is these denim pieces are totally versatile and can be worn separately on their own. And even more so as Denim separates in my opinion.

The Ava jacket features an over sized foldover collar, two oversized pockets, button front, lantern sleeve with pleated details at the arm and pleats at the back. It’s a copped jacket with an oversized look. Very on trend and would look great as a jacket or button up top.

The Alba skirt is a high waisted skirt with pleated skirt hem. It has a zipper fly, side seam pockets, darts at the front and back waist and best of all the front wrap detail on the right side. The wrap has a button option or a decorative zipper option. If you prefer rocking this style without the wrap feature and prefer something more classic the wrap feature can be left off!

I love my versatility, in fabric, design and styling! This denim two piece is giving me all those things. Can't wait to remix and wear these pieces in my wardrobe! I will be dropping The Alba and Ava patterns by Jan 1rst If you want to make this set! Its a great time to get into denim if you haven't already.

Until Next Time!❤️
