Making a Christmas Cozy Jacket with the stash and leftover Christmas Miscellaneous

Image
  Well, make it as simple as you want....but somehow...someone gave me some bells so I had to add the snowmen with hats so I could put the bells on them.... Then of course, if I made them 3 D...I needed to make the trees etc 3 D..... and then of course, the fur.... on the sleeves and around the whole jacket... SO Cozy I  cut the jacket  In half up the front so I can make it a cardigan.  Then I have some christmas tree napkins that I did not give away in past years so I folded them into the tree shape and then stitched them onto the shirt in the back.   I will decorate them and add other embellishments before I line it. and add fur to the outter edges.         Sewing things on with invisible clear thread.... puffing the little presents and  toys and cookies and Santa and the Snowmen like a trapunto quilt.... Yes, I went wild with the crystal buttons for the tree stars.   Stay tuned for updates.

Making a Jacket from a Pre-made Sweatshirt and some Faux Fur from GSTREETFABRICS

Image
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. See You at GStreetFabrics having Fabric Fun

Hats...Theme Baseball Hats-Bucket Hats- Dramatic Hats

  Bear Hunting Hat and Old Car Hat and Camo Personal Hat By the way, I have no idea what I am doing....I made a cover for the hats and then did whatever.   Combo Sewing and Gluing. I started to sew on the inside of the caps to finish them but I worried that the edge would feel uncomfortable, so I got some permanent fabric glue to glue the inside edges with some topstitching. I am adding a Moose to the camo Hunting Hat Not perfect but good enough for hunting or hanging on a display hatrack These were all a learning experience I put too thick a stabilizer in the bucket. Maybe a grandchild will get it.  I would need to make it bigger and less stabilizer as I wanted to make it reversible. I need to do the finishing touches so I can go back to finishing the tummy time sloths minky throw.
