| With
our friendly and helpful staff, Fabricana is an ideal
destination for people learning sewing and design. Each
year we are visited by thousands of secondary students
looking for fabric for their first project (a pair of
boxer shorts!) or more advanced sewing projects, elementary
students taking private sewing lessons, and students from
post-secondary institutions studying fashion design. Many
of these students have generously offered to display their
projects in our stores as a wonderful source of inspiration
to the rest of our customers and other up-and-coming seamstresses.

Jill’s Sewing School

Delta Secondary School Tailored
Jackets
The following photos are of jackets created by senior
students at Delta Secondary School. These were their first
tailored jackets with lining and they look great!
Comfort Quilters
Fabricana celebrates the accomplishments of Comfort Quilters.
Take a look at these inspiring quilts created by Comfort
Quilters. These quilts will be donated to various community
care-providers. Fabricana is proud to have donated many
of the fabrics seen in these quilts.
Fabricana Staff Quilt Show
In spring of 2005 Fabricana celebrated quilting with a
two-week quilt event. Part of the festivities included
a Staff Quilt Show that traveled to each of our three
locations. The show was a great testament to the amazing
(and award winning!) talents of the women of Fabricana.
North Delta Secondary School
Some of the students at North Delta allowed us to display
these creative projects including some of their prom dresses!
