Alina Galasso played an important role in introducing European fabrics to the Australian fashion market through her company, Fabric Fantasy.
We all remembered visiting Fabric Fantasy in Commonwealth Street, Surry Hills, it is where Tessuti is located today.
So this morning we met at The TAFE to admire the beautiful garments that were made for Alina Galasso and others from the fabrics that Alina had imported to Australia which were amazing.

This is my 2nd piece of jewellery that I did at the beading course, and the colours where chosen to work with the tops that I took away to the USA in February this year.
When I got home I changed my top to McCall's 9080 in a grey stable knit which I made too many years ago to remember.

I'm so impressed with your jacket! I've done muslin after muslin for that, but never gathered the courage to actually sew it. I'd love to see that in person.
Your jewelry is great too!
WOW - that sounds like an interesting day out! Cute outfit - that jacket with the jeans looks a million bucks!
