KCW Day 4-7

 

So I was working away on KCW and in the middle of it a family reunion.

 

This is what I got done

 

Day 4

 

I got to the button holes but decided that I should NOT do button holes while drinking a margarita.

 

Yea, your seeing that right, a margarita in a to-go cup. Who does that?? Me. That's who.

Better question? What restaurant let's a girl walk out of there with a margarita in a to-go cup?
As the big man said " Nothing say's drinking and driving like a to-go margarita."
Luckily I was not actually drinking and driving!

anywhoo...

 

 

Day 5-6

Day 7

 

 

I traced out McCall's M6020 for 3 girls for my brother's wedding in early September. I almost didn't have enough exam paper for my pattern tracing. Guess it's time to ask the Dr. for more!

The couple is doing a rainbow theme and the girls picked out their colors.





Kids Clothes Week Day 2

Have you jumped on the bandwagon yet?? Aww, Come on everyone is doing it, it's not to late for you to get in on it:)

Day 2:

We've got pockets people!

Some were easy

...some not so much...

 




See how my pocket and the picture doesn't look the same??






 

The bottom portion of the pocket is way wider.
I checked to be sure that I had the right pieces AND that I traced the right top piece right and not too short. . . I would do something like that. . . but I didn't.

I'll keep trudging along and see if it turns out.






I hate being pressed for time and something like this happens.

Well, there's always tomorrow. 

   

Kids Clothes Week Day 1

So maybe you've heard of it?

 Maybe your even doing it??



Here is what I've got done on day 1:

 
 I am one of those people who do not cut the original patterns. While it does add to the sewing time I prefer it so that I can get the most stretch out of my patterns. For my own use, I can use multiple sizes off the same pattern. Secondly, so that if I give them away or sell them later there is no question of their completeness. 


I tried to add my work in progress on this project...but...it won't let me. I think that it is because the McCall's 6502 has not been added to their database. I'll have to try again later.
