December 2015 After School Sewing

Trapezoid shade valance


     We finished up sewing for 2015 the second week of December.  We had a break of three weeks and just started back after the New Year.

     I finally finished a project for my own home, a valance for the sewing studio.  Some color to brighten up the studio.

Michelle and her shorts


Cara and her awesome coat


     In Tuesday's class Michelle, finished a pair of shorts and started on a square neck blouse.  Ellen is working on a dress for her sister.  The fabric is quite slippery so it is providing some challenges for her.  Cara finally finished the coat she started last fall.  It has a lining and a zipper.  She did a wonderful job and it fits her beautifully.  She learned a lot making this coat.

Lindsey and her tree skirt

Hailey and her peasant blouse

Makayla and her peasant blouse


     In Wednesday's class, Lindsey made a tree skirt for her family.  The twisted cord she used for the edge was hard to sew on but she learned all about the zipper foot and lots of pins.  Natalie is working on a ruffle skirt and Makayla and Hailey finished their peasant blouses.

Aviva and her pants

Grace and her shorts


     In Thursday's class, Aviva finished a pair of drop waist pants that included making buttonholes for a drawstring while Grace made a pair of shorts that she opted not to hem but instead let the fabric fray for a fringy finish.
   

     Planning my summer schedule now and hope to have it finalized in the next month.
