Never say die

Take a look at this recent jacket I made. Yuck!!!! It just sat strange and it did not matter who I put it on it wouldn't work.
Enter a pair of scissors stage left and  put one arm over the head cut off the sleeves reattach one and rejoin all the bits, add a matching arm warmer and voila!!

    Isn't felt wonderful? You can cut it up and it just lends itself to something wonderful.

    how cool is that! How handy it comes -Im guessing- the knowledge or mere notions of sewing and clothing making.
    It looks fabulous.
    I saw that you are coming to NL in July...rushed to signed up only then to realized that in July I will be in Sweden on vacations. When I proposed to Mr husband to move the vacations a bit forward I was met with the angriest of looks.
    I really hope you come back soon so I can meet you in person... not to mention I would love to learn from you!
