Fabric
I purchased my fabric in Toronto at King Textiles on Spadina Avenue back in May 2013. Looking back, I regret not purchasing more fabric. Unfortunately, I do not remember the exact type of silk, but I am aware it is a type of raw silk. It has a matte appearance but light and soft hand feel. Perfect for the drape of this design.
Pattern Drafting
The pattern was actually adjusted back in June 2013 and fabric cut shortly after. Like most designers....you do not get to the construction stage right away.
