Happy to have found you! 
I haven't done any sewing for ages, due to the arrival of a puppy last summer, but have to make myself a wedding outfit for early next year, so will be visiting you a lot from here on I think.

Hello and welcome. I remember you from TSF- an afficionado of Fabworks if I remember correctly????

Thanks!  Yes, Fabworks is not far from me, and a trip is necessary!  I'm going to a wedding early next year and have decided to make my outfit, so I'm looking for a print - linen or possibly jacquard or brocade, to make a simple coat (Kwik Sew 3732) to go over cropped linen trousers and a linen top..

Hi Fiona, welcome from me too. Another Fabworks fan here, but I've not been for ages. Too much waiting to be made up, so I'm resisting temptation.
