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.

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?

Isaac Asimov Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Isaac Asimov Isaac Asimov en 1965. 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:

Sweetheart Ballet Tee Tutorial | IS•LY | I Still Love you Here’s yet another way to spice up your t-shirts when you get a little bored with the plainness of them all. I did this a few weeks ago to two of my plain tees. I’m threatening to do this on all of the t-shirts I own. Seriously. Watch out! This little ruching technique takes literally 2 minutes; the perfect way to jazz up an outfit on your way out the door. Materials: Fitted Tee Sewing Machine Coordinating thread Elastic thread Scissors Magic Erase Fabric Pen (not pictured) Cut the collar off: only cut a little around the back & cut more around the front to make a deeper neckline. Find the center of the front collar. HAND wind your bobbin with elastic thread. Turn your tee inside out and pull on the elastic thread until your shirt is as rouched as you’d like. Trim loose ends after securing the thread in place with a square knot. Dab the front of your shirt with water and a Q-tip to erase the magic marker line. FINI!

So Sew Something! *TUTE* Who can resist polka dots - Pencil skirt w gathered waist darts PIC HEAVY so i made an actual skirt of a test garment i posted previously -> I used no aloha's suggestion on the polka dotted fabric - i wanted a more classic white and black but i couldn't find suitable fabric so i went with green & white instead. the piping is white satin, it has an invisible zip at the centreback and I added a slit at the back to make it easy to walk in. hope you all like! laid flat My instructions for this skirt assume some basic pattern making and sewing experience/knowledge. Create the pattern pieces. Modify the front block (1/4 of front skirt):Drop the waist by 5cm along the waistlineBring in side seam at waist by 0.5cm (so that skirt hangs properly)Slightly curve the left leg of the dartCreate fullness for gathering by slashing and spreading the pattern piece according to the diagram.Slash approx 3 times and open up by 1.5cm Bring in side seam at hem by 2.5cm. Sew darts for the back.Join side seams of skirt.

Make It and Love It: Paper Bag Skirt.......{{and hidden mistake}} Looking for the Honeybear Lane giveaway? Scroll down or click here. Okay, it’s not really a skirt made out of a paper bag. But it’s called a “paper bag” style skirt. (high-waisted, cinched in like a paper bag, a bit poofy, etc.) Kind of a fun little skirt style that can be made pretty easily. Well, unless you mess it up like I did the first time around. (But I’ll show you what I did wrong and then tell you the easier route…..don’t worry, it’s nothing huge.) I know, all paper bag skirts versions are a bit different…….but here’s my take on it. All cinched in with that flouncy bow tied in the front. And with plenty of pleats, which gives it a nice fullness. And yes, we need fullness around here. Because fullness allows for plenty of movement in the skirt…….you know, to help while gathering pine cones and such. The back is gathered with elastic (but is hiding underneath that waist tie), giving the skirt a nice snug fit. Why not make one or two? They are certain to put smiles on faces. See the seams?
