Sew Necessary

Sew Necessary Louise and Natalie Szankar Why do you do what you do? We love fabric! We ooh and ahh over textures, colors, and patterns.

We feel that Medicine Hat could use a fabric store that offers a fabulous selection of fabric specifically for garments; whether it be a special occasion, a great suit that is unique or a comfy t-shirt to wear everyday. Seeing what people are sewing, and being able to educate them on the right fabric and sewing techniques.

Fabric scissors ✂️

Using them ONLY for fabric makes a huge difference — paper will dull them fast!
You don't have to spend a fortune on fabric scissors. If you can, try your scissors first. Check for a comfortable grip.

How versatile fabrics can be. Here we are paired Recycled cotton terry + recycled cotton rib = the dream team. The rib was used for a skirt and the terry is a jacket.

Soft, sweatshirt comfort from the terry, and stretchy, shape-holding cuffs and bands from the rib.

Perfect for hoodies, joggers, and lounge sets you’ll never want to take off.

If you were sewing with this combo… what would you make first? 👇
