The shorts are so cute! McCalls 7931 is a nice bias skirt. Mimi G also has a tutorial sewing it and some really good tips about sewing on the bias. 🪡👗🧵🥰
The DIBY wearable blanket pattern is free and should work well with the teady fabric. Pound fabrics have a good range of softshell, I recently made a coat with some so can recommend it.
The shorts are so cute! I use that method for attaching waist bands to trousers. It’s easier to top stitch without the need to catch the folded edge of the inside of the garment. And yes you are entitled to fabric shopping for using your stash. Happy sewing!
I completely agree... you need a fabric shopping trip! Well done on using your stash though 🙂 Loving the seasonally inappropriate makes... It is just being and making sure others are prepared x
😂 l bought a bias cut skirt too M & S £35 l thought I should make it. Bought McCall's M7931 which has a zip and Mimi G had a sew along which has turned out okay for first toile and also bought Style Arc Genoa Bias Skirt which l've tried but need to tweak a bit to get the waistband fitting better. A sew the spring trends would be fab but only if you have the time! It's lovely to see you so far every Friday 💜
I just made a DIBY wearable blanket waterproof for my nephew. I talk about it a bit on last week's Friday sews. I lined it with a fleece blanket . He's delighted at 6 ft 5 the long length of the small just needed length added to the arms (I have an original dry robe that's about 10 years old so haven't made one for me). Shout if you need any more info ! So lovely to see you back on here! 😊
Today is the first time I have heard the mention that you do music? As a professional musician that loves to sew, please mention more about it :) Do you sew for gigs? I have to do everything in black, and to blend in , so not too exciting for sewing, but I can choose what makes me comfortable for concerts.
I used to sing a lot when I was young and really enjoyed it- this year I decided that I wanted to relive my youth 😂 I’ve been doing a bit of backing vocals for a local rock band which is really fun! What kind of music do you perform? X
Wow That is cool.The hardest part is to re-connect for places to sing I bet. I am a 'low woodwind' player, specialized in the largest sizes of flutes clarinets and saxophones in Los Angeles, but now semi-retired and just play the Contrabass flute and bassoon back in my home town, Montreal Canada. My work wardrobe has to be a lot more sedate than yours 😆 @@threadtherapy251
Hi there, Whitney at TomKatStitchery made a vlog (5/12/23) about a bias skirt (Stay Stitch Coco bias skirt). Also Whitney did a demo on doing beautiful hem on it (15/12/23). It was lovely. Nice to have you back on CZcams … from a fellow paddle boarder! Would like to see the dry robe. 😀
More fabric needed 😉 love those shorts, I’d love to give them a go… once our endless winter shows any sign of leaving us 🥶 😂😂
I know, roll on the sun ☀️ x
