re-fashion shirt

This is my latest re-fashion project

A large charity shop shirt with very flared and much to long for me sleeves.

The finished front after removal of sleeves and side seaming

and the back.

And with one of the sleeves I made

Or I have also used it as a hair bow

I am sew vala thank you for letting me re-fashion with you.

From Cushions into Bags

These are some bags that I made from some cushion covers. I am sorry I didn't take pictures of the cushions beforehand, at the time I didn't know about this blog. Actually I didn't even blog myself. But today I was going through pictures of bags I have made so far and remembered these had a previous life. I hope you like them.

This one is for me, my daughter the Frill Master did a fantasic job pinning the frill for me.

Internal view of the bag above using quilting cotton.

And the good news is I still have enough fabric left to make at least 1 more bag.
