Tuesday the Vintage sewing machine group is meeting at 10:30 at Quilts etc., 11 East main st. Sandy Door #3
Please bring your sewing machine and basic sewing supplies to our next session.
For each ice cream cozy you plan to make, you will need to prepare the following materials:
- Two pieces of fabric (minimum of 9.5'' square, ideally non-directional small prints)
- Two squares of cotton/poly batting (same size as your fabric)
- Matching thread
- A removable marking pen or chalk.
Saturday 8/8, the Garment group is meeting at the SLCO Government Ctr., 2001 South State, Room N3-930 at 10am
The Technique of the Month will be Determining Fiber Content by Kathryn.
Our program is to tissue fit our pants! We chose S9923 for the pattern we wanted to make. But feel free to chose any pattern you like. Choose your size by your hip measurement. If between sizes, please choose the larger size.
If you are comfortable preparing your pattern, to save time, please do so: Start by checking seam allowances. If possible, make side seams, inseams and waist seams 1" to give us a little extra in case we need it! Trim the pattern pieces on your size (after adding to the seam allowances) and mark all the seam lines. Then pin the front to the back on the seam lines, with pins pointing down! (You can wear tights if you are uncomfortable being fitted in your underwear.)
Note: you requested that we do a program on online fabric sources, so we'll do that in September, along with a discussion on linings, underlining, and interlining.
