Spring Shirting

Making spring blouses and shirts? We have you covered, from soft cotton lawn to crisp, classic shirting. Here are a few highlights from our new arrivals!

New fabrics arrive almost daily! Come and see what's new.

Spring Plaids!

These soft new plaid cottons are just right for spring sewing! Perfect for everything from soft shirts and blouses to flowy skirts and picnic dresses.

Spring has sprung at Treadle! Come in and see all of our wonderful seasonal fabric choices!

Silk Matka

We have some gorgeous new Silk Matka fabrics in the store!

Silk Matka, also known as "raw" silk, has a lovely, slightly coarse texture similar to linen, but much more refined. It's a perfect spring suiting, ideal for jackets, trousers, and structured dresses. The look of this classic fabric is crisp, clean, and smart.

Spring Blouses

We may still be getting the occasional snowfall, but Spring is slowly starting to emerge. And Spring sewing means blouses! The ideal spring blouse is soft, great for layering, and feels great to wear. Look for bright and fresh fabrics to help shake off that winter feeling!

To get you inspired, here are a few blouses we have displayed at Treadle right now. This first one in red shirting is from a Katherine Tilton pattern, Butterick 6325, and features asymmetric details and an interesting collar pleat.

This Japanese cotton double gauze blouse (McCall's 6124) has a smooth, figure-skimming fit due to front and back princess seaming. Perfect for wearing under cardigans and jackets!

Want something quick and simple? McCall's 7360 is a half-buttoning pullover with a boxy, relaxed fit. This lavender Swiss dot fabric makes it springy and sweet!

This one shows a great use of printed cotton lawn. Not too many seams to break up the large print, and a longer cut that flows softly over the body. Made from McCall's 7327, it also has a lovely self-bias neck binding and asymmetric layers at the hem.
