Just had to show you the material my daughter bought when I was in Johannesburg for me to make Georgie a dress. The photo does not do it justice as it has lovely little stories running through it. I am now waiting for Bernina to send me an invisible zipper foot which I have ordered.

Really lovely fabric. I zoomed in reading the stories. Will be watching for your invisible zipper project with this. You always sew such beautiful projects. I haven't done the invisible yet either. Always regular way so far.

She should love the dress to pieces especially when no one else will have the same fabric.

Love the small print!! What are your plans for the dress. I ,too bought the invisible Bernina foot and have never used it. I do use the regular zipper foot often. I am however playing with the ruffler foot . Love it!!

The fabric is going to make up a pretty neat story book dress. The invisible foot is easy to use as it stays right in the zipper teeth. I've put in dozens of them.

I love this fabric! Do you know who the manufacturer is? Often the name will be printed in the selvedge, and sometimes the name of the print.

I was a bit taken aback seeing my old post come up. I have since made the dress and if you page back a bit you will see it. The material is called 'Wildflower Wood by Lynette Anderson of Lynette Anderson designs'. I live in South Africa so I am not too sure where it was imported from.
