DIY Roman Shades. It always feels great when you have your mind set on how you want something to look and then it all comes together. This is exactly what has happened with my entry way/porch area. I knew I wanted to put stripes on the wall but it was a matter of finally getting around to it. Once that was done and the porch was all cleared out I knew I had to make it something that was worth having. That’s when I ordered my desk and watched the space slowly turn into what I had envisioned. Waverly Chippendale Fretw Quartz Premier Prints Gotcha White/Candy Pink Waverly Cross Section Raspberry I knew I wanted a geometric pattern so that almost immediately eliminated the second fabric (Waverly Chippendale) and I wasn’t too sure about that first print because of the whole papaya part. Fabric, Measuring Tape, Scissors, Fabric Glue, Mini Blinds. 1. 2. Should look like this when it’s all done. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

I know it seemed like a lot of steps but trust me it is so simple and quick! Like this: Related. DIY guide – draped skirt | Passions for Fashion. Mandag, 19 september 2011 Her får I den længe ventede DIY guide til at binde en draperet nederdel, som jeg første gang viste i et indlæg fra Kreta. Jeg har brugt et gammelt tørklæde fra H&M, men har I ikke et tørklæde i den stil, kan man købe et langt stykke jersey stof i en stofbutik meget billigt.

Mit tørklæde er 2,5 meter langt og 1,5 meter bredt og så har jeg foldet det på midten, så det kun er 75 cm bredt. Hvis I køber et stykke stof der er lidt tykkere, behøver I ikke folde det på midten, bare det ikke er gennemsigtig, of course :) Jeg håber at I kan lide guiden og at den er til at forstå, ellers spørger I bare. Efter trin 5 sætter man en hårnål over lukningen, så nederdelen bliver siddende. Here is a DIY guide on how to tie a draped skirt.

Envelope clutch pattern. It’s clutch-a-long time! I’m so excited to share this free pattern and to see all of your creativity with it! Before you start, feel free to do something awesome to your fabric first, print it, stamp it, dye it, pleat it, stitch it to make it your OWN! Or choose a killer fabric combo and button! When you’re done, upload it to the flickr group so we can all see and comment! Additional supplies:-needle & thread for closing-pinking shears (optional)Notes:*Use 3/8″ seam allowance*seam allowance included in the patternInstructions:Print pattern piece and tape together.

Cut it out and cut out 1 each from your main fabric, lining and interfacing.Fuse interfacing to back of main fabric piece. Set the main piece (with interfacing on the bottom) with the top flap away from you. Fold the sides up at the notch and pin them. When both are pinned, it will look like this. Sew up the two sides you just pinned. Press the seam allowances up. Turn the lining right sides out and slip into the main piece. Envelope Clutch Pattern Re-Mix. I was so excited to get an early crack at See Kate Sew’s new envelope clutch pattern.

It’s a basic design that is easy to dress up or down, or not at all. The way it comes together is so smart and it is a really fun sew. It’s not complicated but you end up with something fully lined, and professional looking. And…it only requires two fat quarters and some interfacing. I love that. Oh and did I mention that Kate’s envelope clutch pattern is FREE?! I couldn’t resist making two. One sassy… And one sweet. :) I didn’t really remix it a ton but added a couple details. For the “sassy” one, I took gray duck cloth and added a box pleat. Because duck cloth is a lot thicker and heavier I was able to omit the interfacing. I also added a zipper welt pocket to the inside of both clutches (tutorial coming next week!). I added a triangle button to the gray duck cloth clutch even though it’s a cheap plastic button. I have no idea who the liner fabric is from. It’s muted on the outside but wild on the inside!
