Sewing the recycling way
May. 26th, 2013 09:44 pmI'm fitting pockets into various skirts and dresses that didn't come with them (why???)
This means going through the smaller bits of Fabric Stash for suitably sized and shaped bits and pieces. I'm on my third - and all three bits of fabric have previously been the back yokes from blouses. Two were failed practice pieces from that navy Victorian I was doing, this one is from an old pink silk - most of the body got turned into interfacing for a houppelande years ago, but there was just enough left for this.
