It's just been so busy here I haven't had time to compose blog posts, let alone make anything.
This week I'm trying to get back into it.
I'm looking for two armchairs for my computer room and I want to reupholster them myself - so I've been scouring Ebay and freecycle for something suitable - no joy yet!
I decided to attempt something out of the pattern magic book and have settled on the vanishing lapel.
Figuring out the instructions was a little challenging, but I think I've got the gist of it. need to complete the muslin tomorrow. watch out for the final piece later this week.
I also popped into Morpeth today to meet a friend, on the way in I called at the charity shop and picked up a floor length dress - ripe for refashioning, look out for that one too.
I also met up with a friend, whose wedding dress I'm going to make to discuss design ideas with her. can't wait to get started on that one!!!!!
That's really neat. I've never seen anything like that. I have to check out this book...
ReplyDeleteI have the same book, and fell in love with that idea. I am with you on the directions. I read it several times, and will surely study it again before attempting it. What did you think was the hardest part?
