Disclosure: This post is sponsored by Girl Charlee
I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading the posts I’ve shared this month on “sewing with knit fabrics”. I really enjoyed both designing the projects and researching more about sewing with knit fabrics.
In case you missed it, here’s a round up of the posts shared… I’ve also got a fantastic giveaway for you if you’d like to try out sewing with knits yourself— just keep reading!
Next we talked about HOW to go about sewing with knit fabrics.
Although it was technically not “sewing” with knits, I did show you how to custom print your own design on knit fabrics with this freezer paper stencil project.
Next I told you about one of my favorite travel accessories, and showed you how to make one yourself.
and lastly, I shared a dress that I made for my teenage daughter.
This is not the end of knit sewing for me, in fact I’ve got 3 or 4 more projects “in the works” that I hope to finish and share in the next few months. A few of them are pretty “non” traditional, which I’m kind of excited about :).
Now, what’s a good roundup post without a giveaway?
Girl Charlee donated the fabric that you saw in many of the projects this month. I’ve ordered from them a lot before (I paid myself, no freebies)… and highly recommend their site and fabric selection.

I have never sewn knit fabrics before because the are so intimidating to me. This would be a great way to jump in and Girl Charlee has such cute fabrics!
Flo says
I recently made a dress with a Nicole Milker sparkle knit fabric, but was unable to serge the fabric because it was so thin and stretchy, my serger was making a mess of it. I tried changing to a ball point size 12 needle, adjusting the differential feed, everything I could without any success. Any ideas? Thanks!
