Animal Print Anyone?
I have been working on some things for my mother. I have made about 4 pairs of pants, a vest, and a jacket...I am working on another jacket right now and my sewing machine is not working. So now I have to take it in on Wednesday to get it repaired.
So here are a couple of the things I made for my mother.
The first thing is the Giraffe Faux Fur vest. I forgot to take a good picture, so before I put it in the mail I had a friend take a picture in the parking lot! :)
This vest is reversible solid brown with giraffe and a solid giraffe side! It turned out really great, however making reversible clothes can be quite challenging. Everything has to be EXACT. there is no room for error when you are making clothes that fit back to back. So this being my first time there was a couple minor incidents with it. My mom says she doesn't notice them though! :) Anyway, I love the way it turned out and for someone who likes animal prints (my mother) it is great!
This next jacket I made for my mother I have really been putting off because I have never worked with any kind of Spandex type of material before and honestly, it plainly horrified me to think about messing with. So I took the plunge the other day and ended up LOVING it!! The material is amazing to work with. Of course there is animal print involved! :)
This jacket drapes in the front and has a short sleeve, half sleeve, and 3/4 sleeve option. I am going to make another one with 3/4 bubble sleeves the next time I make it!
I am in the middle of another jacket (my machine broke) and a dress for Scarlet as well as a couple of shirts. I will then be starting on bridesmaid dresses for a wedding I will be in on June 11th. Looking forward to making myself a beautiful dress!
