Hi All. Just picked up some lovely jersey fabrics – plain and prints.
I feel inspired to make a few tube dresses – nice and cosy for the winter worn with boots and woolly tights. I‘ll post some pics when I’ve made them.
Stretch jersey fabric is not as difficult to sew as you might think. Some people seem to have a bit of a phobia about working with anything stretchy, but as long as you use the correct stitches, needles and threads it isn’t bad at all! I currently run a few courses that incorporate different types of stretch fabrics, for instance my Stretch Top Workshop; Knicker Making (where you have an option of using stretch or woven fabrics); and my Child’s Fleece Top Workshop.
Have a look at the website www.seweasybristol.com
Please let me know if you are interested in doing a course that I don’t currently run – any suggestions would be very welcome.
As promised, the pics of my lovely fleece jacket. I’m really pleased with it. The asymmetrical front and hemline make it look quite unusual.
The big pleated collar keeps the cold out on these cold wintry days.
You can make one too on my ‘Fun Fur or Fleece Jacket’ 2-day workshop. Why not try it?
