My first pattern from Fabrics-store.com
I just received my pattern (and linen - 3rd order of fabric) and am eager to get the sewing begun. With the warmer weather, I plan to make capris and the wrap. Later, I will order more linen to make pants as well. Tomorrow starts my journey!

Fantastic
I was asked what made these patterns worth the cost. They are worth every penny. The patterns are the perfect choice for linen..designed with linen fabric in mind. They are classic styles..will not go out of style and they create a perfect pallet for accessories. The styles are beautiful and elegant, fun and practical. And finally, like a present in a beautiful box, wrapped thoughtfully they arrive with all the bells and whistles, well thought iut..quality packaging, quality paper, exceptional instructions
Capri Pants
I just completed the Capri Pants. I am 5"4" they were a little long. Other than that they fit great. Not too baggy in the waist and they fit at the waist. When I bend over my butt is still in the pants. Thanks ....I will be working on the jacket next...
I used the heavier weight natural linen for these pants. Very comfortable. Now to make a top to complement them.
recently ordered the Akira/Cameron pattern and am simply delighted with it. I've gotten so much sewing done these past weeks and realized that linen is my absolutely favorite fabric to sew. I've attached a picture of the Akira wrap (in a luscious purple), a pair of the Akira crop pants (medium lovely gray) and a simple sleeveless blouse from your free pattern collection in a bright yellow! I adjusted the pattern for a FBA, which turned out beautifully. I then made another blouse in white linen. I'm so appreciative of your patterns, your fabrics, and the creativity your site inspires. Next up: Akira pants in black linen (ordered last week) and the Akira short cardigan in apricot (just ordered today!) It's entirely true - nothing short of addicting!
The Akira collection consists of two garments, a cardigan or top and a pair of pants or capris. There are multiple variations you can get from each type of garment, making this pattern very versatile. After mulling over which ones I wanted to make, I decided on cutting a pair of capris and the belted top. The effortless design of the pieces makes each one of them totally wearable and very easy to match with other pieces in my wardrobe. As with other Fabrics-store's printed patterns, I cannot emphasize enough the clarity of the instructions. I would recommend the Akira collection to any beginner sewist who wants staple pieces in their wardrobe.
The Akira pattern I love because of it's versatility and how classic it looks. I generally lean towards pieces that are versatile, effortless to wear and are easy to care for. This pattern is that and more. The top has three possible versions and pant 2. It is a perfect pattern for beginners as well. The Akira set really speaks to my style because I love accessories and I love to layer and the cardigan especially is something I could play up. Although winter is fast approaching here in the Boston area, I never put my linen away! I just add it as an extra layer
