Sewing Easy Sweaters Regular neck, Mock Neck, Turtle Neck- In Between Meetups

-

 


Stopped to do some sweaters, so I wouldn't be chilly at work

Remember - Total Outfits... Earrings and scarves complete the total compliment


This style is a very quick and easy pattern.
No, I don't serge, I finish the seams with an overcast stitch.

This is the full turtleneck collar, stitch on the front side bottom seam of collar right side to right side - flip in and turn under then top stitch.

Here is what it is like when done- just fold down and wear.

Front Back and 2 sleeves, plus the collar.. quick

I cut a scarf out of the leftovers-long tube with slanted ends, and covered buttons for earrings.


Added this Freeflowing jacket I had cut out already, that matched.

Pink Pants I had previously made and the Total outfit was done to wear to work.  I did add a burgundy scarf to the two scarves that matched the jacket and the sweater, and voila...pulled it all together.

and a last minute matching facemask

Well, I had green fingernail polish and some jewelry.

I have another lovely jacket cut out in greens-a reflection on the lake of the trees, and I already have a green sweater and green pants, so that is the plan for tomorrow.

I have another sweater cut out in black and white

This one is to wear with the black animal print pleated palazzo pants that I need to make and that will go with this weeks meetup short jacket

Luxurious soft fur...can't wait to wear...oohlala

Making a Room Divider with Fabric and Cardboard

 Making Things that are Easy and Quick Everything I do is not always sewing as you could see from my Polar Fleece edging blog.  Now I am sewing today, but I am planning a room divider.  I really don't lift heavy things, but I have a doorway that is just a hole to under the stairs where I store things.  I want to put a room divider there. A.  I can't find anything I like. B.  They are probably heavy. So  I am going to put random pieces of cardboard together to the size I want and then cover it with Library fabric that looks like books on shelves.  This has been something I have been searching for and have not been able to find for a month or two.  So I decided to make one. Sew, I am posting a picture of the divider I fashioned.  It is actually attached to a hanger so that it can be rotated to go into the storage space under the stair.  There is no electrical light, so I managed to find some motion detector lights on amazon that I could stick on the sides and under a stair back a

  More Intermediate sewing on  https://www.sewmorewithkitty.com This is the method where you slip the fringe through the top of itself.  THIS IS NOT QUICK!. Easy you can do while watching a movie.   I used this template purchased at GSTREETFABRICS   where I work a few days a week.  One piece of patterned fleece one piece of solid fleece the same size and a rotary cutter and this template.  You also need a self-healing matt so you don't cut through to your table or bedspread etc.  You can see here I have a folded cardboard tabletop with a self-healing mat and then the two fabrics I am cutting. First lay your two fabrics on top of each other and make sure they are cut to the same size. Second cut out a five inch square corner on all for corners Cut out the corners out in this case 5 " Cut the Strips  1 1/2 wide or 3 slots in Fringe cutter 5" in Poke a hole with your Seam ripper slightly elongated to allow to pull the corner through. In this case I made the fringe strips 1 1
