This picture consists of things that I am working on right now. After being soooo inspired by this post as well as this one
and this new book
courtesy of my swagbucks account I am eager to try my hand at some new clothing for me!
Making clothing for myself is not entirely new to me. I have made quite a few skirts in the past, but I am attempting to graduate up to some blouses and hopefully a few more skirts that are a bit more challenging and have a better fit.
I dug out some vintage fabrics as well as some that I have had lying around for quite some time. The corduroy is from my grandmother. I am eager to make something nice and warm out of the brown and the blue vintage corduroy!
The bottom stripes is a jersey fabric that I bought a ton of when it was next to nothing at Wal-Mart.
The fabrics to the right are a little bit of beauty that I am making into this, but only in a smaller version.
And the lovely wool. I am still undecided. I am considering dying it with some elderberry juice before I knit it up into something scrumptious. I just am not sure yet.
Any ideas???
By the way, I can’t wait to show you what I finished first.
I will have the first of the projects coming up tomorrow!
My Cup Runneth Over…
