Circle Knit Shirt Tutorial

I have a favorite shirt. I’ll be honest, it’s probably my favorite because it’s the most comfortable shirt I own, AND my husband bought it for me and he thinks I look cute in it. That’s really all I need. Oh, and it’s a great backdrop for a pretty necklace! Anyway, I wear it with a long tank top, leggings and either boots or black Toms, depending on the weather. So, I worked this week on developing a 2T-sized version of my shirt. Singer_sewing_machine_company/manuals/singer-401-slant-o-matic-sewing-machine.pdf.

Drawing Fashion illustration exhibition

Drawing Fashion features the work of well known figures including Lepape, Gruau and Antonio, as well as contemporary artists, namely Aurore de la Morinerie and Francois Berthoud.

About time – balloon clothes have been sidelined to the backwaters of fashion for too long in my opinion… and not through any fault of their own, although they probably wouldn’t fit me etc. There are loads of them here – although nothing quite up to this standard : Which is a bit like a Zorb made by someone who’s read about them, but who hasn’t quite grasped the basic concept. Still, this latest lot are cool: Although you’d have to drink through a straw etc, and could only eat things smaller than the gaps between the balloons – but maybe that’s a good thing.

And they’d probably serve a dual protective function as well – similar to what this guy was trying to achieve or this… Which is quite cool as well. I think the ultimate would be wearable bouncy castles. That would be cool. Vogue Magazine Cover Archive. Shwinandshwinarchive. Fashion Institute of Technology - Patternmaking.

Study abroad in Italy - PHOTOGRAPHY FASHION COURSE - Fashion summer study abroad program - Summer 2014. Conductive Thread Overview. Back in 2004 when I first became fascinated with e-textiles, there were virtually no resources to purchase conductive thread commercially.

Conductive Thread Overview

I was fortunate enough to be a graduate student at the time and convinced manufacturers out of my sheer curiosity to mail me samples of their spools of conductive thread. Now in 2009 there is a growing number of threads available commercially and if I have my way :-), soon your local craft and hobby stores will be carrying small affordable spools. I get a lot of questions regarding which conductive thread I prefer or use. Unfortunately there is no ONE ideal thread — it really depends on what you are trying to accomplish. That being said, I have diligently created a review of all the threads I have tinkered with to share with all of you. I hope this answers most of your questions.
