Jalie project done

So, if I set my mind to it I can get it done, here is Cory wearing the shirt I just made for him!!!!

New Projects

I've got a bunch new projects under way! First is a Jalie pattern for men 2328, I'm making Cory a thermal shirt. Second I'm makig Khaliah Ali Collection, pattern # 2336 from Simplicity. In this collection I'm making A shirt, pants and jacket, unfortantly the pants will not match anything but, thant's ok, I need a pair of pants to run around in. My wardrobe is really lacking style right now, I need a few pieces to help bump it up.

Denim Rug

You can see the back side of the rug with all the lines for were all the denim rectangle pieces were sewn.

Denim Rug

This rug is finished, but you can see the rows of rectangles sewn to the big piece of denim. I ssewed them about 3/4 of an inch from each row(you'll be able to tell better in the next picture). The rugs fluff up after you wash them and the boys think they look awsome in their rooms.

Denim Rug

I started sewing the rectangles to the top of the bottom of the rug. As I sewed them down I was over lapping them by a 1/4 inch.

On the edges of the bottom denim, I folded over twice and sewes them. I now have the  bottom of the rug that will not ravel.
