Chanel Cardigan Jacket | Seams Like Fun
https://seamslikefun.wordpress.com/2015/02/26/chanel-cardigan-jacket
Join the sewing community. By Seams Like Fun. Claire Shaeffer pattern – Vogue 8259 (out of print). Coco Chanel was the epitome of elegance and her classic cardigan jacket is a timeless garment. It is my humble opinion that no wardrobe is complete without at least one version. Then, if you are going to be a purist, it must be constructed using classic couture techniques. Being a huge fan of sewing by hand, this suits me just fine. This year I will be teaching a 4-day workshop at the Australian Sewing Guild.

Join the sewing community. By Seams Like Fun. Click to view video. Here’s a twist on the traditional bound buttonhole – a triangular buttonhole! They look fabulous and – bonus! 8211; they are a wee bit easier to make. I have just finished a video tutorial which I hope to be the first in a series I am calling Creative Closures. Can’t promise when the next one will be published but hopefully before too long. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public). 18 July, 2015.

Castaway to Couture | Seams Like Fun
https://seamslikefun.wordpress.com/2015/04/01/castaway-to-couture
Join the sewing community. By Seams Like Fun. 8216;Before’ shot – a wee bit too big for me. I got inspired by the Castaway to Couture competition run by the Australian Sewing Guild. And took myself off to the Red Cross Op Shop for a bit of bargain hunting. Lo and behold – a jacket in my favourite colour (green), although definitely not the right size. This jacket had lots of interesting features, especially the pockets. So what to do…? Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. 18 July, 2015.
