Tips to buy fabric

I would like to share with you tips on buying fabric. Of courselah, this one is based on my experience,  which i buy fabric that is not appropriate to me. Hot, itchy and many more types of that really annoying me. So guys, pay attention to the following when purchasing fabric. Hahha ... that I follow today.

1) You know what, touching the fabric is really important. First let your eyes focus on the fabric and then touch them. Even though the fabric looks good, but if it is uncomfortable with your skin, RED ALERT!! so my advice do not buy.

2) BEWARE... Be careful with it characteristic. Are you more attracted to the fabric whether it soft and supple, or sophisticated? Seasons and weather conditions especially at my area, may affect the selection of fabrics....ahhahaha..... If the fabric is too thick, it made us sweat... so ugly...

 

3) Use a small heart whisperings you to determine the suitability of fabrics for clothes: asked the fabric (gently!) "what you want to be?" wakakaka.... talk to the fabric, people will think we are crazy... .... the answer is tadaa.....  a mix of information you receive and your own creativity.

4) Buy extra fabric to coupled it when to make a a suit of clothes. Usually when bought the fabric for a dress, it will dusty if it left too long cos we are waiting a suitable fabric to mix and match the for dress.

 

5) Pull the the fabric from the reel as long as possible.... and u know what the salesperson will glance towards you... you won't do that... You'll find the look of the fabric different, compared to when you see only a piece of the the fabric. If possible, bring the fabric to the length mirror and wrap yourself with it... you got twice glance from the towkay of the shop.. haiya, what wrong with this customer... 

If the lights change color in the store, buy only slightly (quarter meter) and analyzed at home (wah.. a bit of CSI lah)....

note: buy quarter meter only after wrap yourself with the fabric... sure, the towkay will complain.. don't do this at store... there's no fitting room...

6) When you are going to match the the fabric brought from home, bring the whole the fabric the store, not the only piece.

7) Resistant yourself out buying the fabric just because it is lovely... but i usually cannot resist myself...really badly ... What looks interesting in the rolls are not always look beautiful when used as dress. If you must have it, treat it as an revenue. If you bought 4 meters of the fabric, you will probably have enough the fabric if you decide for the make dress. 

8) Consider your budget ability... this a main factor..... $$$$$....If you like the the fabric which expensive, buy a few only, it can be used as ornaments trim in for your clothes....wa, so little lah...

and lastly....

9) To enhance the knowledge about the the fabric, visit the fabric store with the aim only for the look around.. formerly known as 'window shopping' (i hate window shopping.. can look but cannot buy) but not to buy it.... but who cares if it's beautiful i will buy and kept as my treasure... 

that's for now... but it's depend to you whether to buy it or not...think..think...
