Skip to main content. Skip to secondary content. On the Cutting Table. Lost “It” and Beware Old Appliances →. October 7, 2013. In all my years of sewing I have never had a cutting table at a proper height for my 5’2.25″ frame. I now have a table set at 36″, right at my waist. I had to dance! Thanks, everyone, for all your suggestions for raising a cutting table! Our main concern was finding PVC with the proper interior measurements that would let it slip over the legs and not grip or be sloppy. We fo...

Tutorial: Convertible Collar with Yoke | Gigi Sews
https://behindtheseams.wordpress.com/2006/09/23/tutorial-convertible-collar-with-yoke
Where the action is. One last time – McCall’s 5137 →. September 23, 2006 · 10:47 am. Tutorial: Convertible Collar with Yoke. A few days ago I was asked to republish the convertible collar tutorial that I had on my now-defunct GigiSews.com site – here it is! Should be 1/4″ – always, IMO. With the exception of the collar, do not press anything until the end. Construct the collar. I always put a large X with chalk on the undercollar so as not to mix them up. Attach the inner yoke/front facing unit to the sh...

Thought I'd share with you what I've been up to these past few days.amazing what some time off from work produces, besides very sore muscles from moving things I should not be moving! It was cramped, alongside a single bed.but I loved my little corner of the world. Did alot of staring out the back window instead of sewing.inspiration? Ya, maybe.right. I've already taken my machines up and will take a pic when it's set up. Oct 22, 2011, 7:20:00 PM. But I...

http://littlesewingalcove.blogspot.com/2011/11/jean-jacket-m5860-done.html
Monday, November 21, 2011. Jean Jacket M5860 done. It's complete. I'm pretty happy with the results, although the pockets look huge in this picture. The color is a dark Army green, which my camera did not pick up. I topstitched it in a light green. The buttons are from my stash and as I said before, the fabric was given to me.bonus! Next up, another blazer for work.that is, when I go back! I love a jean jacket. Olive green is a good color for one too. Nice job! Nov 25, 2011, 7:13:00 AM. SEW MUCH TO SEW.

My Little Sewing Alcove: Butterick Jacket and Vest Done
http://littlesewingalcove.blogspot.com/2011/12/butterick-jacket-and-vest-done.html
Tuesday, December 6, 2011. Butterick Jacket and Vest Done. Amongst the fabric my sister gave me, she also gave me patterns. In the box I found this jacket and thought it was really cute. Not sure how old it is or if they even print it anymore. I decided on the red one. I added about two inches to the hemline. This picture is up close so you can see the fabric better. Even if I wear a different color top, no one will even know. I just got a new job.so one more thing to wear! Dec 6, 2011, 7:48:00 PM. Widge...

My Little Sewing Alcove: Brother PE500 Embroidery machine
http://littlesewingalcove.blogspot.com/2015/02/brother-pe500-embroidery-machine.html
Sunday, February 1, 2015. Brother PE500 Embroidery machine. On an impulse, I purchased this machine last Fall. Not sure of it, the jury is still out. I bought it refurbished from Amazon. Works amazing. But, did I really need it? NO Guess I needed a "happy" in my life, living with someone for 40 years, then BAM alone, will do it every time. Oh well, guess it makes it unique. It's for my grandsons.I still have to put a backing on it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). My Little Sewing Alcove.

My Little Sewing Alcove: It's been 3 years.....
http://littlesewingalcove.blogspot.com/2015/01/its-been-3-years.html
Saturday, January 31, 2015. It's been 3 years. Hello all. It's been a long time since I've posted. A lot has happened in these three years. I want to start sewing and writing again. I always had so much fun creating garments and reading about yours. In these past years, I lost my husband and best friend to an illness. That was the hardest thing I've gone through. A month before our 40th wedding anniversary.never made it. Of course all the while listening to some good tunes. Feb 3, 2015, 8:56:00 AM. Gerti...

My Little Sewing Alcove: Hobo Bag - done!
http://littlesewingalcove.blogspot.com/2011/10/hobo-bag-done.html
Tuesday, October 18, 2011. Hobo Bag - done! I had this piece of gold paisley print hanging around for years. I thought it matched nicely. It's hard to see, but I put in a pocket on the right for a cell phone. I skipped the larger pocket on the other side. Took it outside for a brighter picture. It's actually alot bigger than this picture shows. In fact it's big enough to throw in a magazine, lunch and wallet and use it as a tote bag for work! Oct 19, 2011, 7:45:00 AM.
