Light Cotton Jacket, Matching Design No Pattern

Image
  This was a lovely gift of two yards of fabric from my friend who went to Bali. I am proud of how I figured it out and also I had the perfect button hooks to match the fabric, wasting away in my button sewing box. It was a 2 yard piece of fabric with dark blue background and gold metallic design. When it was finished I took the scraps and made a mask and earrings.  Used every inch of this fabric. I needed something lightweight and cotton, so I picked up the piece and examined the print.  It had some lovely design that was in columns I could use for borders, but I could see it would take work to cut it out. The selvage was a nice print of gold, that I didn't want to lose.  I laid out the whole piece of fabric and figured how I could cut the front pieces and the back piece on a fold and utilize the border strips. When there wasn't quite enough of the strips I would block end them with the scraps. In my sewalongwithkitty.com blog this post explains taking a simple piec...

Loving the Cowl Collar even on a full drape woven

Image
One of my favorite Palazzo pants with pockets and accessories below.  I love the cowl collar, but I can do this one on the non stretchy, silky printed chiffon.  I will probably make some suit jackets and this will look very classy. The details are 3 small buttons on each sleeve non cuff and at the back of the cowl collar.   I made the neckline big enough to put over my head and the sleeve cuff big enough to just slide my arm through.  I love the button detail, but I like quick on and off. Got to make it custom couture with accessorizing. Scarves, earrings, mask, scrunchie, and whatever else I think of to impress the GStreetFabric Customers. These fabrics came from GStreetFabrics.com-where I work. If you come to the store, I am usually behind the cash register, with matching mask to keep from those pesky germs... mom will be 101 so I am no spring chicken. Always trying to INSPIRE you.

IMPOSSIBLE UNDERTAKING...SOMEONE STOP ME I was given this fabric that was already sewn into a Queen size top by sewing three pieces together Could I make it into a 5x5 childs quilt?

UH Somebody stop me... that was over 2 weeks ago and I have worked on it every waking moment...  Fabric...cut to size  2 pieces..front and back Muslin and batting...cut same size... Sew on batting and muslin to the piece for the top Outline each figure through the sandwich and slice behind the figures and then stuff and hand stitch opening shut... Top  done... uhoh... how to sew the back on.... Two pieces together and then sew on the binding... now Hand quilt each figure First of all you need the right tools.... To hand sew a quilt bigger than your small desk top you need a quilting rack.   I DO NOT HAVE ONE.... I do not recommend what I am doing....  A...
