Wicked welt

Wicked welt, originally uploaded by cherry_rockette.

I am vastly improved on my welt pocket making. Mad skillz my dears.
I just loathe doing 'practice' ones though, I feel like if I'm going to all the effort of sewing something, then I should get something out of it.

Store your buttons on safety pins to keep all of one kind together. Makes it easy to handle them too.

Rework vest

Vest reworked from a vintage jumper. The bind isn't 100% yet, I think I need to work on it a bit more, but overall I'm really happy with how it's coming along.

Jarmies

Jarmies, originally uploaded by cherry_rockette.

After a few trials an errors I think I have a pretty nice pattern for some lounge pants / jarmies coming along for summer. A nice flat front with elastic at the back (no, not hanging out like that, I just didn't know how long to make it), and a straight leg that sits nicely on the hips and under the tum. I'm not into the kiddy pants that have a high rise and go up to the armpits!

And strangely my iPhone auto spell wants to change 'jarmies' to 'marmosets'. ???

How did I ever cope with block fusing before you came into my life?
At $80 from the local op shop I am very very pleased with you.
