In fact I just made a dress with the RK New Castle denim and I LOVE that fabric! The Joann denim is just fine considering the price, and easy availability. <br /><br />Also, I don't think it's a lint magnet.

I have been curious to compare the Joann's to the Kaufman lightweight denims which are also lovely. Hmm... If you ever want to write a denim/chambray review post, I would love to see it!Erica S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17494862493770321292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1073134727738265514.post-89191646713460510532016-04-01T21:34:28.953-04:002016-04-01T21:34:28.953-04:00Thanks Emi!
