Halter Dress Pattern For Modelmuse (Barbie Basics) Made a wedding dress out of it. Then applied Photoshop to remove pins and make the skirt longer. That was a LOT faster than putting in Velcro or making a new skirt :-) Here's the printable pattern in pdf format Instructions: Fold over sides (not lower edge) of top pieces and topstitch Lay one top piece over the other to the place where the arrow points, pin them together then gather the lower edges of both Pull gathering threads until the top pieces fit between the two arrows marked on the midriff piece Stitch top pieces inside doubled layers of midriff, leaving an opening where the top pieces are, through which you're going to turn the midriff. Sew skirt side seams, then stitch skirt to midriff, leaving back edges of skirt a little wider than midriff Then fold those over and stitch center backs and hemline Sew on velcro or snaps for closure
Make my Week #35 - draft your own pattern i don't have one, but here's how you can easily draft your own: ::take a pinafore/singlet/dress in the correct size and trace around it - i only traced half then folded and cut the other half - adjusting length as required: ::it should look a little something like this:: ::to make the back piece, match the side seam and opposite shoulder seam. the rest entirely depends on your preference in curves:: **if don't have enough fabric to cut as a solid piece, use these two pieces (cutting 2 of the back) and add side seams** ::to make it a solid pattern piece (like i used) simply tape sides together, fold at centre front and cut on fold in fabric:: pretty easy huh? (i must apologise for pukey picture quality. it seems winter is throwing a tanty about heading north so it's dark,dark,dark indoors today)

But this does not keep some designers and inventors from thinking that the calories burned during exercising can solve the energy crisis to some extent by powering daily use machines with pedal-power. These machines not only serve the purpose they are actually built for but they also reduce the number of hours you spend in a gymnasium. • Pedal-powered Water Purifier: • Pedal-powered Washing Machine: • Pedal-powered Grain Crusher: • Pedal-powered snowplow: • Pedal-powered Welding Machine: • Pedal-powered Internet Kiosk: • Pedal-powered Gadget Charger: • Pedal-powered Lawnmower: • Another Pedal-powered Washing Machine: • Pedal-powered Bottle Cooler and Heater: Categories: Uncategorized Tags:
DIY paper clip earrings | withonehandwavingfree Recently I felt myself falling into sort of a creative rut. I took a little break from crafting and began perusing my favorite blogs as well as the always inspiring craftgawker. During my ventures, I stumbled upon a bunch of really fun new DIY projects, one of which I had to try right away -paper clip earrings. I love when I already have all of the materials required to complete a project. paper clip earrings what you will need: As far as the glue is concerned, one that dries clearly and quickly is ideal. Once the edges are all open, you will shape it into a triangle. Add a tiny bit of glue to a small area of the paper clip, as it will dry pretty fast, and wrap the string around and around in a tight fashion. Please excuse my poorly trimmed nails:) The only tricky part of this project is wrapping the overlapping, open side of the triangle. That’s my friend Laura wearing her new earrings. If you decide to use yarn, you can achieve some really interesting looks. Don’t worry, though.
Dog sanitary panty diaper nappy patterns | Mimi & Tara | Free Dog Clothes Patterns Many of you have asked me for a female dog sanitary panties, so here I bring you the patterns that can be used as a diaper with a sanitary napkin or simply like a cute shorts for summer time. There are several designs that can be done, for this design I was inspired by the image below, that seems pretty simple, comfortable and beautiful. You have to measure your dog's waist and choose the correct size, to do that please follow the table below: Size XS-8 inch waistline Size S-10 inch waistline Size M-12 inch waistline Size L-14 inch waistline Size XL-16 inch waistline Size XXL-18 inch waistline Please note that you have to measure your dog's WAIST, NOT CHEST, so measures should be taken at the waistline, the narrow point of the abdomen between the ribcage and hips. If needed you can make bigger the dog's tail hole. To decorate the panties, we can sew some bows, or a lace binding on the back. I highly recommend sewing a lining in the intimate zone for more protection. Happy sewing!!
Category: Hacks When my older son discovered his first wiggly tooth, I realized that I had the chance to define the Tooth Fairy experience for another generation. As I pondered how the Tooth Fairy would collect our family's teeth, it occurred to me that she has an awful lot of teeth to gather, especially considering the ever-rising world population. It seemed prudent to figure out a way to send the teeth to her for processing, rather than make her visit the homes of all 7,103,000,000 people on Earth. As such, I installed a pneumatic transport system (as at the bank drive-through) in my house, for the purpose of sending teeth to the Tooth Fairy, and receiving renumeration back from her. The Raspberry Pi serves up an interface that I built using Hype, which allowed me to quickly animate the movement of the capsule on the map and the spinning tooth on the "Under Review" page. #! The Pi does not need to know which direction the carrier is going. See the entire series here.
French chaise made from card stock This is the project for this month. This French chaise is made from card stock, foam core and mat board. You could trim off the front of the chaise and make a chair. The chaise in front, the one with the patterned fabric is a little longer than the pattern included. It was my prototype for the blog and I felt the chaise needed to be a little shorter. Below are the patterns. For a form for the back I used the top of a solid air freshener container. Measure down from the small end 2 1/8 inches. Cut out your back pattern and trace it onto a piece of card stock. Mark a center line on the front. Cut the back out, don't cut on the line this time. Spread wood glue on the back of your back. Place the first back onto card stock and press all of the glue out. Spread glue on the back you just cut out and place it onto another piece of card stock. Press all of the glue out and make sure you have all 3 layers glued together well. Now, you cut the back out following the line. (I like these rubber bands.
Spirograph Necklace Tutorial | Stealth & Aces So, here’s the tutorial on how to make the Swirl Spirograph Plastic Canvas Necklace, such as: Now, this is my first ever tutorial, so please forgive me if I’m too pedantic or if I’ve confused you. I’m happy to answer any and all questions. Full tutorial is below cut. First, you have to find the round, plastic canvas. Hobby Lobby: The circles I’ve found are 2 and 7/8ths” in diameter, but anything in the 3″ range should do fine. Next, take one circle and figure out how large you want your finished piece to be. Next, cut out the inner circle. If you want a smaller necklace, you could use just the 3rd and 4th rings (from the outside) and cut off the unnecessary outer two rings, as well as the inner circle. Next, select your string colors. My canvas has 48 squares, so I opted to go with 6 color sections, selecting 6 colors to use one time each. So, count up the number of squares in one ring of your canvas. Like this:
