Fashion Design Croquis, Templates

I just found the BEST site for free design croquis. Lots of different body types, including children, babies, boys, men and of course women. Check out Designer Nexus for a variety of croquis. You're welcome! (I'm bummed ... I just bought some croqui templates!!)

Croquis are templates used for fashion design and fashion illustration. (They also have a whole section of just flats!!) Love this website.

Turn your own strips of fabric into double-fold bias tape. All you need is an ironing board, a hot iron, a measuring tape or ruler and a long needle. Check out the complete tutoral at Creative Little Daisy. or more on using bias tape at Pickup Some Creativity.

GREAT post on continuous bias, and how much yardage for your desired length and width.
