I thought I'd just document how I made the hats, then with the benefit of my experience you can venture forth and give it a go yourself, knowing I had no idea what I was doing but still managed to do it good enough regardless!

Mini top hat tutorial

Things I used: Construction Paper (though any paper will do, this is just thicker so a bit easier) CompassPencil/pen Tape Patience Spray Adhesive Fabric for hats (I used satin for the white one, and an acetate lining for the coloured ones) Scalpel / Utility Knife / whatever you want to call it Scissors Hot Glue and Hot Glue gun Box board/strawboard/thick cardboard, whatever you want to call it. As long as its a thicker board that is still (just) bendable and will keep its shape.

I used a mixture of 1.2mm and 2.4mm thick card. The groundwork: How to Make a Mini Top Hat. How to Make a Mini Top Hat. Make This Look. Make Fabric Flowers. Let’s just jump right into making this flower… Start with a piece of fabric 3 inches wide by 24 inches long. Twist it really tight. Fold it in half and it will twist together on its own.

Hot glue the unfolded end under to create the center of the flower. Continue wrapping around until you get to the folded end, gluing periodically. Women's Clothing. Married to a bmw Free Sewing Patterns: Women’s Clothing 06.

Melly Sews: Pickup Skirt Tutorial

If you are new here, you might want to subscribe via email so you don't miss a post. Today I’m going to share my pickup skirt tutorial I have been obsessed with pickup skirts lately. From the Mountain Laurel Dress to the skirt with the His & Hers Henleys to the Fairytale Seersucker Dress, to pins from my Women’s Clothing Fashion Inspiration board on Pinterest, I’m all about the pickup skirt. My apologies that you’re going to see photos from both the His & Hers Henley Skirt and the Mountain Laurel dress.

First, you need both your skirt and your lining. I know the lining looks kind of like a straight skirt in the pic above, but it was actually flared. Next, sew a gathering stitch around the bottom of the skirt. Sew around the bottom. For a poufier skirt, like the Henley Skirt, add some netting between the layers. Now gather the top edge of the skirt to match the top edge of the lining. Pintuck practice. I am making a blessing dress for baby Ruby (which may or may not actually be her name. We started calling her that a while ago, and I think it will stick, but don't hold me to it). Normally when I start a new project, I just wing it, but a blessing dress is special.

It should have french seams and pretty details and not look like mom made it all willy nilly. I decided this was going to require some research and practice. Minieco tutorials.

Renegade Craft // Chicago Day 1 · Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012 Did you ever go to a place with zero expectations, having really done no research and then find yourself completely head over heels obsessively in love with that place once you arrived?

That was my experience of Chicago. I only fit ‘The Windy City’ into my travel plans because it so happened that The Renegade Craft Fair was going to be on while I would be in that (very) general area of the U.S. Having followed the fair’s shenanigans online for quite some time, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to visit!
