FABCYCLE

We added almost 50 more fabrics, and there are some really lovely finds in there.

If you've never shopped our BOGO collection before, here's how it works: choose any fabric from the BOGO collection, then pick a second fabric from the same collection and you'll see one of them become free at checkout.

We had way too much fun filling this restock, and there are some really great fabrics waiting to be discovered.

Go have a dig through the collection. You never know what you might find.

We still want you to join us.

Choose something you made that you love wearing.

Post a photo or Reel on Instagram between August 1 and 12 and include: @fabcyclevan @hisewjo #Frocktails2026

We’ll draw two winners, and each will receive a $50 CAD FABCYCLE digital gift card.

We can’t wait to see what you pull out of your closet. 💗

The countdown is on for Frocktails 2026: Wear What You Love, happening Friday, August 14 at the Sun Wah Centre in Chinatown, Vancouver.

The theme is Wear What You Love.

Handmade, altered, quilted, upcycled, thrifted, costumed, mended, dramatic, practical, sentimental, experimental, or anything in between, if you love it, wear it.

One of our favourite things is opening boxes of vintage sewing patterns.

Some arrive neatly organized in folders. Others come from sewing rooms that have been collecting ideas for decades.

Then comes the fun part.

We start flipping through the envelopes and suddenly we’re travelling through decades of fashion.

This week, we added over 100 vintage sewing patterns to the website, and there are some absolute gems hiding in the collection.

This weekend, we’re featuring a specially curated collection full of bag-making fabrics, accessories, and hardware.

You’ll find webbing, buckles, handles, closures, vinyls, clear fabrics, waterproof-style materials, sturdy fabrics, and other really useful finds for totes, pouches, backpacks, cases, and more.

If bag making is your thing, this is an amazing drop to browse!

We curated a special collection of clasps, hooks and eyes, cups, and specialized elastics for all you undergarment makers.

So if your forte is lingerie making, bra making, swimwear, dancewear, activewear, or even mending your favourite undergarments, click the link below and have fun digging through the collection.

We added a new option to make it easier to save your purchases to your Sewjo stash.

After you place an order, check your confirmation email for the 'Add to stash' button.
Click it, sign in or sign up, and then open the Sewjo app to see your stash.

We opened a Facebook group called FABCYCLE SEWING GROUP!

This Facebook group is our community space to inspire one another, support our fellow makers, and mostly, to connect over the love of everything fabrics, sewing, and creating our own projects from textile waste.

We hope you accept this invitation to join as we will be posting sneak peeks, really cool (and often weird and wonderful) things we get, sewing challenges, and exciting updates! :)
