  • That Was a T-Shirt!!! We Need Tops! While Cotton Tops Are Easy to Make, Knit Tops Are the Most Versatile Due to the Forgiving Stretch
    That was a t-shirt!!! We need tops! While cotton tops are easy to make, knit tops are the most versatile due to the forgiving stretch. Because of the challenges in working with knit fabric, updating a t-shirt is the perfect compromise. Our goal is to have someone look at our top and say “that was a t-shirt?!” All hemlines need to be removed and restyled and the neckline needs to be either ruffled (size small and some medium) or trimmed. Here are some guidelines that we are looking for. Simply sewing a decorative stitch or zigzag over the existing hemline (sleeves and bottom hem) does not make visual changes to the t-shirt. Please cut off the existing hemline and if you like, you can make it shorter. If you have a serger, you can finish the edge prior to hemming but because the knit does not ravel it is not necessary. You also do not need to turn over the edge prior to hemming. Sleeves Match the sleeves and cut off both hems at the same time. You can cut straight or at an angle and make it a cap sleeve Use a decorative stitch for the hemming, variegated thread looks great! Use either white or black thread in the bottom as variegated thread is expensive. Remember to sew on the right side with your finger on the bottom feeling for the fabric edge. Watch for those sales and coupons!! Sulky blendables, 30 weight, 100% cotton is very nice to use. If you hem with a straight stitch, make it a little longer perhaps 3.0 and add some elastic to make it gathered at the hem edge.

  • Halloween Ruffled Edged Apron
    Halloween Ruffled Edged Apron Use the Baby Lock Verve sewing and embroidery machine to add a ruffled to the bottom edge of a purchased apron. The edges are finished off using the Overcast “G” foot and a glow in the dark thread. Baking Halloween treats will never be this much fun! Skill Level: Beginner Created by: Diane Kron, Software and Embroidery Project Manager Baby Lock Project: Halloween Ruffled edge Apron Page 1 of 3 Supplies: Baby Lock® Verve Sewing and Embroidery Machine Purchased Apron 1 Fat quarter (Halloween print) Madeira® Glow in the Dark thread Madeira black Cotona thread White bobbin thread Black rick-rack Instructions: 1. At the cutting table, cut (4) 4 ½” wide strips from the Halloween print fabric. These sections will be used for the ruffle. When deciding on how long the ruffle should be, measure the area where it will be placed. The length of the unruffled section should be 2 to 3 times the length of the area. This will give a nice full ruffle. If your apron is larger than the one used in the sample, more fabric may be needed. 2. Set the machine up for sewing: Thread the machine with the Glow in the Dark thread. Wind the bobbin with white bobbin thread and place in the bobbin case. Select the Overcasting stitch #118. Snap on the Overcasting “G” Foot. 3. With right sides together, piece together the 4 ½” wide Halloween print sections end to end. 4. Overcast each of the seams together. Press the seams in the same directions. 5. Overcast the top and bottom edges on the pieced section along with each of the ends.

  • Sleeveless Blouse Tutorial by Marianne Jeffrey Adventurousquilter.Blogspot.Com
    Sleeveless Blouse Tutorial By Marianne Jeffrey Adventurousquilter.blogspot.com #sleevelessblousebyAQ Quick and easy to make! 1 Fabric Requirements This blouse tutorial has been written to suit any size; you take vital measurements and decide from several options offered. You will need up to: 2 yards of cotton fabric It is highly recommended you use cotton sateen as it drapes well. However you could use quilting cotton. I have found that a high quality yet lighter & softer quilting cotton such as some of those manufactured by Art Gallery Fabrics or M & S Textiles Australia drape well for use in cotton clothing. Harmony Art Organic Design has fabulous organic cotton sateen, you can buy it here: https://organiccottonplus.com/collections/prints-harmony-art Spoonflower also has a cotton sateen available in their range and offers a multitude delightful fabric designs by indie designers: https://www.spoonflower.com/ Rayon is another fabric option that drapes well but be sure to wash and dry before making the blouse to preshrink! Lightweight linen is also a great option or a linen/rayon blend! In dressmaking it is common for sewists to make a “wearable muslin” In simple terms a “muslin” involves making a ‘test’ garment from cheap fabric such as muslin to perfect the garment size, cut etc before using high quality fabrics for the final garment. A “wearable muslin” is made from cheaper quality fabric than your final garment, so that it is a wearable piece of clothing once it is complete! If you choose to do this you can shop the clearance aisle of large retailers such as Joann, Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Spotlight etc to buy cheap yardage for your test garment.
