Hello my wonderful Sewciety readers! This is Jayme, aka “Finding Sweet Land” in the quilting community. A couple days ago I had the opportunity to work with Shannon Fabrics new fabric, the Berber Check. The Berber Check fabric comes in 5 different colors and is awesome for blankets, scarves, home décor, etc.
If you need something trendy for your winter needs or even something “manly” for the guy in your life, these fabrics are it! I used the free “Team Spirit Infinity Scarf” pattern (off of the Shannon Fabrics website). I wanted it to be super soft on the inside so I lined it with Embossed Cuddle® and made it reversible. I used Berber Check in Burgundy and the Embossed Arrow Cuddle® in Black. You just need 1/3 yard of each fabric to make one scarf (you'll have a bit of extra fabric left over).
I love all of the colors. I think I might make something with the Charcoal next!
It was a very simple project and the Berber Check was so easy to work with. This new scarf gives me plenty of warmth and I need that from the all the snow we’ve had in the past few weeks in Idaho. It also gives me the awesome look of the plaid trend I’ve been seeing on social media.
