Circular Vest

Circular Vest
One circle of fabric makes a vest that highlights both sides of a special fabric. Choose a fabric that looks good on both sides. Jack Deutsch Sloan Howard Photo: Jack Deutsch To create this vest in less than an hour, you use two measurements to draft a circle and then just cut fabric and the armholes and bind the edges. For a super-comfy version, choose a thick fabric such as fleece. Whether you make it in a lightweight fabric or in a cozy knit, this vest is the perfect addition to any wardrobe regardless of the season. Draft and sew the vestStart with your measurements to draft the vest pattern, and bind the edges with a coordinating rib knit. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. excerpted from Threads magazine Issue #146, p. 69

Little Red Infinity Dress Tutorial *Tutorial made by Melissa @ Sew Like My Mom for her win during the Red Week challenge.* I made this little dress in about 3 hours and for under $20! I used some soft polyester knit I found at Hancock Fabrics for $4.99/yard. I found these dresses on Craftster years ago and have always loved them. First, you need to do some measuring. So, 30/6.28 = 4.7. Then I decided on length of skirt and came up with 18″. To make your straps, you need to decide how wide to make them. To determine strap length, you need to make them 1.5 times your height. So, got that? To make your pattern, get packing paper, freezer paper, or a bunch of pieces of computer paper taped together. Then I measured 18″ down from that and made another line for my skirt length. Cut out on your lines. Now, keeping your fabric folded in half with selvages matched, fold the fabric in from the end so it’s doubled on itself. Next, cut a waistband 10″ tall and the length of your waist you measured. Now for construction.

{DIY Tutorial} When Your Husband Ruins His Clothes, Make Them Yours! - Home - The Thirty-Something Bride Wedding Blog The last time I posted a clothing DIY tutorial, it was because The Candyman had ruined one of my favorite shirts. The Candyman, if he’s anything, is totally a guy when it comes to certain things. He never puts the dishes away in the same place twice. Clothes will lay strewn over and around his hamper, but hardly ever IN his hamper. I came across the sweater last week, sitting in the closet, gathering dust and I took it out to give to Goodwill or something. And besides, I wanted a new sweater. So I would say that this DIY tutorial is rated, on a difficulty level of 1 to 5 with 5 being the hardest, at about a 3. Here’s what I did: Because the sweater had a center placket with buttons, I simply cut the width of the placket up the length of the sweater. So now you’ve got some raw edges to deal with. You’ll want to choose one that is weight appropriate for your sweater. You’ll want to measure two equal lengths of the ribbon, one for each side of the sweater. If you’re Ms.

Referendo mundial sobre el clima. Bienvenidos al sitio Francia para su difusión y organización El referendo mundial sobre el clima no se justifica porque la tierra esté en peligro. Ella no lo está. Aunque la tierra tiene la venerable edad aproximada de cinco mil millones de años y parece cansada, ella ha conocido varios ciclos de renovación mucho antes de la aparición del hombre, y conocerá otros después, si continuamos así. El referendo mundial sobre el clima no tiene por vocación defender la vida. Hasta no es en peligro, ella siempre encuentra su camino incluso después de las extinciones de masa de las cuales se conocen cinco y que han significado la desaparición del 90% de las especies marinas y terrestres. Proseguir el camino del capitalismo, de la depredación y de la muerte o comprometerse en la vía de la armonía con la naturaleza y del respeto de la vida Quién de nosotros ha sido consultado al menos una vez por nuestros jefes de Estado antes de presentarse a las cumbres sobre el clima en la ONU?

Sew Delicious: The Peggy Skirt - Tutorial We are currently working our way through Season 4 of Mad Men: Season 4 One of my favourite things about the show is the fantastic costumes. The episode I watched the other night had Peggy wearing a striking blue dress with red pleats. I had to give those pleats a go. You will need: 1/2 metre (yard) denim 40 cm (16") contrasting fabric (I used some quilting cotton - you only need a small amount) thread/sewing machine 2 buttons 1cm wide (1/2") elastic Denim is not mandatory, but I have found that a heavy duty fabric helps the pleats sit well. For the front of the skirt: 3 denim pieces and 2 contrasting fabric pieces, 11.5cm wide, 38 cm long (4.5"x15") For the back: 1 denim piece 38cm x 38cm (15" x 15") Those measurements will make a skirt that is approximately a size 3. Pin together and sew the front skirt pieces together using a 1/4 cm seam allowance. You will end up with a piece that looks like this: I cut my seams with pinking shears to reduce fraying, then pressed the seams open. You are done! .

I will be contributing to the project list on the Sewing Republic every once in awhile and will be sharing with you here, little things about this machine that I really love.

And sometimes the long sleeve length on a favorite shirt, shrinks a bit in the wash. So, what happens next? Back to the shirt.

untitled This is another one of those - bubbling inside my head - patterns. I have seen many version of this skirt, in various sew and shows online and in stores too. I had always wanted to make one, but circular cuts kind of make me nervous. Finally I couldn't ignore the tiny voice in my head and thought- at the most I'll waste some fabric and an hour ( yeah its that simple...I don't know what I'm afraid of really) let me just go ahead and do it. So I did some calculations in my head, got off my butt and started cutting. Less than an hour later I had this skirt. Supplies: Knit fabrics in 2 coordinating colors - I'm recommending knit fabrics because they're more forgiving. Elastic for the waistband - I reused the hem of a Tshirt for the waistband in the skirt above, if you want to do the same you will need narrow ( quarter inch) elastic. Construction:Pattern:Here's the pdf pattern for sewing the skirt in 18-24 months size. First you need to measure the required length of the skirt. 1. 2. 3.

Œuvres principales Biographie[modifier | modifier le code] Enfance russe[modifier | modifier le code] Issu d’une famille juive, fils de Judah Asimov et de Anna Rachel Berman, Isaac naquit à Petrovitchi — près de Smolensk, en Russie — à une date inconnue, entre le 4 octobre 1919 et le 2 janvier 1920 (c’est à cette date-ci qu'il célébrait son anniversaire, adulte)[2]. Éducation et carrière[modifier | modifier le code] À la maison, à Brooklyn, les parents ne parlaient russe que quand « ses grandes oreilles ne devaient pas entendre »[5] : il n'apprit donc jamais la langue. Asimov se définit comme un enfant prodige. Ses études furent assez brillantes pour lui permettre, grâce à une bourse, d’entrer à l’université Columbia. Parallèlement, il commença à écrire de la science-fiction et vit sa première nouvelle, Marooned Off Vesta (Au large de Vesta), publiée en 1939. Vie privée et carrière[modifier | modifier le code]

Going Sew Crazy: Twirly Skirts and Tutorial I made the girls some drop waisted twirly skirts this morning, and took pics to put a tutorial together. It took me a ridiculously long time to figure out twirl skirts, so I thought this might be helpful. My girls love these kinds of skirts. Drop Waist Twirl Skirt Tutorial Start out by measuring your child's hip or waist depending on where they wear bottoms, and the length from that area to where you want the skirt to fall. A. B. C. Here's a pic to help my unintelligible instructions: Now, Sew the short ends of the ruffle together, and hem or fold in half, whatever you prefer. I use the side seams as 2 of my quarter marks, and if you do this all you have to mark is the middle of the front and back pieces. Run gathering stitches along top of ruffle and gather up to match quarter marks and sides. Gathering Ruffle: Pinning and matching quarter marks: Basting: Serging: Topstitching: Now sew the sides of both the waist pieces and the upper skirt pieces. Pinning upper and lower skirt pieces together:
