This page is a list of books that I used as reference material for sewing. It is a mixer of sewing and fashion books. New Complete Guide to Sewing. This is my very first sewing book ever. I think this is a great book to own in your sewing collection. There have been many occasions when I would get stuck doing something and had to refer to this book to help me move along with my sewing project. Excellent book! A Guide to Fashion Sewing. Pattern Making for Fashion Design. Fit for Real People. I have the En...

The Month (or Two) of Pants. Tuesday, February 2, 2010. Finished on January 30th. As I mentioned before, I had committed to making three more pairs of pants in January for the Pants Challenge. Well, I only got one pair finished, that's sewing life for you. I finished the wool blend tweed pair last night after a little tweaking, serging. February 2, 2010 at 11:34 AM. Great fit and awesome fabric. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Finished on January 30th.

The Month (or Two) of Pants: Burda 1/2006-108
http://themonthofpants.blogspot.com/2010/01/burda-12006-108.html
The Month (or Two) of Pants. Sunday, January 31, 2010. Today is the last day of the month and I finished the wearable muslin I intended to. No seam was serged to make it quicker. I used half of a duvet cover to make the pants. It is obvious I should have made the flat bottom alteration. Now I know I need to do that right away. Should I add the back pockets? I like the pattern and think I'm going to wear these pants a lot when it gets warmer. I am so glad I took this challenge! January 31, 2010 at 8:53 AM.

The Month (or Two) of Pants: S2860: Version 1
http://themonthofpants.blogspot.com/2010/01/s2860-version-1.html
The Month (or Two) of Pants. Sunday, January 24, 2010. I finished the first pair of Simplicity 2860. My thoughts? Meh I cut and sewed a straight 16 curvy. The legs were way too full and I had a lot of bunching at the front crotch. In the end, I ended up removing the fullness by taking larger seam allowances on both the in and out seams. Here is the result:. January 24, 2010 at 10:25 AM. January 24, 2010 at 11:35 AM. Very close. Use muslin for the next try so that the pattern flaws are move obvious.

The Month (or Two) of Pants. Thursday, December 31, 2009. I finally have pictures of both the muslin and garment (near completion). There are some wrinkles in the front of the garment that I didn't see in the muslin. Any ideas? Sorry for the photo quality. I have a love-hate relationship with Photoshop.). My first pair of pant for the MOP sew along.I used Kwiksew 3625. Please check my blog. Here are some pictures. If you look at the thigh very well , you can see what am talking about.Frustrating.

Cable- Down Raglan KAL: October 2007
http://cabledownraglan.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Cable- Down Raglan KAL. Sunday, October 21, 2007. Question by a "continental" knitter. Not only do I knit Continental style but I knit from the back of a stitch. Now in the pattern when it says K1F&B do I knit from the back first the way I usually do? Wednesday, October 3, 2007. Here is the CDR at 36". I think it is a tad bit too small. Tuesday, October 2, 2007. I'm new to posting here, but I've been lurking working on the CDR for awhile now. You can read the details on my blog. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tink - A Poem. I shared this poem with Ravelry. And now I share it with you. You’re so very slow. But blame belongs to me. The fault is mine. Purling while browsing Ravelry. And thanks to Ravelry, I have written a follow up Haiku:. You are such a jerk. No body likes you. Ha ha ha. Thanks for the laugh. I agree with both sentiments entirely ; ).
