Lily Collins’ red carpet look at the 2017 Golden Globes put her on several best-dressed lists.  While the style of the dress was very pretty, the colour was the focus of much of the attention.  Described as “ancient rose” this is a very romantic shade that is youthful but sophisticated at the same time – very flattering onthis young, raven-haired beauty.  If you’d like to emulate the look, check out Fabricana’s bridal and evening department for the fabrics featured above. 

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from all of us here at Fabricana and Fabricana Home! The blog will be quiet now until January as we celebrate the holidays and prepare for our Boxing Week Sale!

If you’re new to knitting, you may find the idea of making a sweater a little overwhelming and it certainly can be.  Why not perfect your new skills on smaller, quicker, easier projects?  Finishing a project will give you a great feeling of satisfaction and will help increase your confidence to move on to more time consuming or complicated projects.  Many of these can be made in a single evening. 

Even though Christmas is over a month away, it won’t be long before it is here! This year I have made it a goal to try and make gifts for everyone on my list. I thought I would share a few of the easy-to-sew projects that I plan to make to inspire you with your Christmas project sewing!
