I'm visiting the west coast for some sunshine and fabric sourcing. Although most of the time was spent in LA traffic, I did manage to get in some skating, beach time, and fabric hunting. The image above is of the path on Venice Beach. I snapped the pic while skating down it with my boyfriend on our way to the skatepark.
I searched down town Los Angeles and the Fashion District for just the right fabric and I'll end up needing to add another suitcase to bring back my findings. I found some super rad indigo tie dye print fabric I just LOVE. See the sneak peek below. I have lots of idea of what to make out of it.

The hunt was real! I searched for hours on several different days. I rummaged through hundreds of different bolts of fabric from lots of different types of fabric dealers. Here's and inside look below.
Venice Beach is an interesting place with a lot of characters and creative energy. It's a very artsy community with a lot of people who make there living right there on the beach. From dog walkers to clothing vendors to street performers, they all bask in the sun during their work day.
