Making this quilted bag was on my bucket list from a long time . so when I finally found right fabric , thick dark denim I moved straight to work. I took chain and inspiration for pattern from old thrifted bag.
My fabric for bag :-D
Hello Refashion Co-op. I can't be the only one that has gotten too big for their britches, right? Corona restrictions have made my jeans uncomfortable and tight.
I cut the side seams open on the outside of both pants legs.
I used the left-over pant legs from a pair of sweat pants. I cut the sweats at an angle like bias tape. That made long strips of gray fabric.
I used those strips of gray fabric to make my jeans bigger. I added an inch and a half to each side. It made a nice stripe down each leg. I also used the biding at the ankle of the sweatpants. I put the binding at the ankle of my jeans. They match my sparkly sweatshirt perfectly.
Hello Refashion Co-op. I have another fall themed dress. This on had sunflowers and wheat grass on it. It was really long and dowdy on me.
I used a pattern as a guide to make a denim wrap skirt. I like how wrap skirts can adjust so they always fit. I thought this would be great for the holidays.
I used the hem from the dress to make a waistband and tie to close the skirt.
I didn't want a long tie at the waist. I used this button and a little Velcro to make sure the waist stays closed but is able to adjust a little every time I wear it.
This skirt should fit no matter what.
To create this dress I used men's shirt and old bed sheet to make it longer.
Fabric it's non elastic egyptian cotton .
Hello Refashion Co-op. I hate turtleneck shirts. I know they are warm but I feel like they are going to strangle me. I decided to do a turtleneck removal refashion.
I cut the neck off the shirt. I used the cut off fabric to make binding for the neckline. I just wanted a round neck, like a t-shirt.
I attached the new binding with my machine. I went over it again from the outside to make sure it would lay flat when I wore it.
