This was my sample of machine stitching on a hot pad.... Sewing it to the back of my comical sweatshirt and putting fur around the cuffs and around the whole sweatshirt made it a fun thing to wear when it gets chilly in the warehouse in winter. 1.  Large size sweatshirt so it is a jacket size.   2.  turn the sweatshirt around so the front sayin is on the back. 3.   Slice up the middle of the back that is now the front. 4.  Buy one quarter of a yard of faux fur and then make it a soft one, clip  and tear into strips that you can fold over the edge of the jacket. one length will be 5 feet and that is enough to go around the front edge. another length will be enough to do your cuffs and the bottom edge or around your saying-the width of each strip ripped is about one third of your quarter yard....have fun.

  Scarf is triple twist= jacket, lace, and underlining white, twisted together-sleeves both blouse and jacket have fake cuff strip trim Its no secret I Love Palazzo Pants I am making a pair of off white pants right now. I cut out 2 fronts 2 backs 4 pockets.. sew the pockets to the pants side seam...sew the side seam and sew the crotch Sew... quickly you have pants with nice pockets.... but no waistband......  fold over the sewn waistband piece leaving a hole in the front center seam for a tie.  So you have sewn your tie piece together and you have two pieces of circle elastic the size of your waist.   sew the elastic into the top row easily, then the tie row and then the bottom elastic row.  This can then be top stitched onto the waist top of your already made pants.   Put your new pants on and for this kind of fabric I just decide where I want them to hit and cut them off...no hemming... Old vintage pattern, can be found online, just put in McCal...

This was Kitty as a baby and small child.  No not perfect.  Curled feet and tied tongue.  Apparently no crying from me until they figured out my tongue needed to be clipped.  My legs needed casts to turn my legs and curled feet so they would grow properly.  As you can see I wore handmedowns from any cousins, who had any clothes they grew out of.  So, I am obsessed with clothes.  As soon as I got big enough to ask for new clothes and was told they did not think it was something to spend money on, for me....... I said, I will make my own..and I did.  65 years of sewing whatever I wanted! This is my line of free flowing jackets, you may order, if you can be patient.  The fabrics are fabulous, and my own designs.
