Adapting a Pattern and loving it!!!

This was an experiment. This is the same pattern as the coat I made for mom only in a child's size. This is a 2T. I had to adapt the pattern becouse it called for a lining. This is flannel and warm enough on its own for cool days. I kept with snaps instead of buttons. Also to support the snaps i put an additional strip along the inside. Lined the collar seam with a soft fuzzy ribbon. You'll notice the material is going the wrong direction on back. Miss cut.  Except for the details all serged. Honestly I ❤it!

Fermenting

Ive been trying my luck at Fermenting. Seems like it would be easy but have had some failures. All part of learning.

Fourth of July weekend 2020

With the quarentine still somewhat on here we hung around the house :) . It was also my Birthday weekend I heard from quite a few people wishing me Happy Birthday even some I had not heard from in over ten years. That was the best gift this year. I felt so blessed that after all that time they still remembered me and my birthday.❤

Been working on a trial run jacket for my mom. Honestly I think it may be just to much for her. This was close to five yards of fabric. ( this fabric is my lets try a pattern fabric lol) im going to have to do sonething different for the closures. My machine did a horrible job on button holes fabric to thick - I think?
