I’ve sewn with both Kaffe Fassett and Art Gallery cottons and they are both lovely!

That blue is gorgeous!

If any of your local shops carry Art Gallery cottons, they are beautiful too and so nice to work with. They are made with Pima cotton and have worked well with all the garments I have made from them.

@skirtfixation – the Swingset pattern is next up on my agenda as well!
