before winter melts into spring

sewing2

let's get sewing. i want to wear the top before the hot weather sets in. perhaps next winter i won't be able to wear it because i'll be in the tropics-wishful thinking. i'm using an easy vogue pattern that was slightly  adapted so that a stand up mao collar can be added. the pattern is  so old it could qualify as vintage.
i need a steady hand for cutting. why is it that my hand doesn't shake with store bought yardage?

  2. Neki, Your link leads to a dress with a cleavage... you're very skilled if you can attach a mao collar to it :-)

  3. Cute pattern and the fabric they show sure does make you think of shibori doesn't it? So will you show us the end results?

  4. i will spend hours tying teeny tiny knots so my cuts on handwoven fabric won't unweave into shreds.

  6. I understand the shaking hands. I do not yet have the courage to cut into a hand-woven length of fabric yet!
