The Skinny on Thinsulate

Dana Marie 1032 What if we told you there was one fabric that could keep you warm outside, indoors, in your bed - and it would totally go with everything? What is it?  It's 3M™ Thinsulate™ . This is an "interlining" which gets sewn between two fabrics to form a protective barrier from the elements. The next time you sew a winter coat, sandwich Thinsulate between the fashion fabric and the lining to get that extra layer of protection from wind and biting cold.  Thinsulate™ Insulation Type C offers about one and a half times the warmth of down and nearly twice the warmth of high loft fiberfill insulations when equal thicknesses are compared.  It is designed for use where a thin compressible insulation is important. It is breathable, moisture-resistant and can be washed or dry cleaned depending on individual manufacturers' recommendations. Here's what 3M has to say about their Thinsulate: "3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation is used in your jack...

Do you relate to any of these statements? You need a larger pocket for your stethoscope. You won’t wear scrubs with less than two shirt pockets. You like lots of pockets on the pants like cargo pants. You can’t stand pockets on the pants because they pull the pants down. You want a longer scrub top to cover your hips & "thangs" better. You work so hard your side seams are starting to burst. You need something shorter/longer because of your height. You need a fuller cut in the bust, but you don’t want to look like you are wearing a tent at the waist. OK, OK, OK….. You get the idea.  We all have our preferences.  So, what to do?

Becoming a Fashion Designer. Tips on Starting a Fashion Design Business.

We get hundreds of visits from Fashion designers at Vogue Fabrics Warehouse. Over the years, I’ve gotten to know a few dozen of them personally and I have come to learn a few things about what they do well and what mistakes they make. I have especially learned that fashion design and having an apparel line is not an easy business. But once you learn the tricks it can bring a lot of satisfaction, purpose, esteem, fame, and hopefully- profit. Recently, we were visited by a young designer who was just starting her business.  After working with her for many hours we were able to fill her inventory needs. At the end of her visit, we both agreed she had made the right choice in visiting us instead of making dozens of appointments with vendors in other cities' garment districts. Our access to several dozen fabric types, constructions, and styles, some with continuity and some novelty, ended up being our strongest advantage as a source for fabrics.  Undoubtedly, she could have saved...
