Hey y'all, we've got a new challenge to bring you!
We're always having conversations about how versatile the black square mesh fabric is.
It's got amazing stretch and recovery and makes for great airflow on athletic makes like Colleen's:
but it's surprisingly not that see-through! I made a dress and didn't even feel weird about wearing it all over last summer.
Brainstorming all the ideas for summer made the team realize all their plans for the black mesh! And so why not have a little sewing challenge?
How does it work?
Participating sewists have made something that shows off the versatility of the fabric and you get to vote for the sewist who's make you want to win!
How Do We Vote?
