NEW AND exciting fabrics and patterns keep fashions fresh for creative people who choose to sew
their own clothing. Karen Hammersley from What A Notion Fabrics Ltd. in West Vancouver shows

oft some of whai they offer to the sewing consumer.

Today’s hot fashion trends are
both easy-care and comfortable

From puge 21
Stretch fabrics’ made into items
like stirrup pants or cat suits, as
well as rainwear and fake furs, are
grabbing attention, said Speirs.
**Everybady wants comfort and
’ ease,”’ she added.
Also hot is the men’s tailored
look with white shirts and, she

said, the big color for fall is red.

She added that fall is one of her
favorite times for new fashion
trends because of the colors and
fabrics that tend to be popular at
this time of year. ‘‘There are
always new and wonderful
things,’’ she said.

Spiers has been sewing since she

az

was 10 yeats old, has been in the
fabric business for 20 years, and
has owned and operated her Park
Royal store for seven years.

She says that she makes afl of
her own clothing. ‘If I knew how
to make ty shoes, I’d make
them, too.’’
