March update – new projects, new sewing Guideline and a great sewing room

      Comments Off on March update – new projects, new sewing Guideline and a great sewing room

We’re thinking spring (a WARM spring!) with this month’s sewing.org projects. Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft Stores helped us out with the Kid’s Fleece Tulip Cozy. This oversized, brightly colored flower will brighten the room and delight any child. In fact, it’s so cute, I’m wondering just how much fleece I’d need to make a giant sized one for myself!

With the Easter holiday fast approaching, our second project, the pastel-colored Easter Wreath, uses yarn to make pom-poms that are tied to a coat hanger frame. This no-sew project from Coats & Clark reminds me of overflowing Easter baskets.

The featured sewing room this month belongs to Pam York. It’s a generous space with a gorgeous view. I love the wall color too.

The new Guideline is 11.107 Pressing Pants. From the text of the Guideline:  “Pant creases are figure flattering as they can divide the width visually…” So my thinking is that if 1 pleat is figure flattering, 4 pleats would make me perfectly waif-like!

Until next time…
