Any garment sewers?
I used to make a lot of clothes in the early years. There are tons of garment indy patterns in quilt shops theses days (not talking Simplicity, Vogue, etc). i guess as I look at my piles of quilty projects, etc, i am revisiting garment sewing as in simple jackets, etc. Not pants....too fussy to alter. So.....just curious if anyone else is a garment sewer or revisiting it?
I have been working on a simple jacket this past weekend. Someone gave me a few yards of corduroy that she bought in 1998! Yes,the receipt was in the bag. She lost interest in sewing ....i thought that I would make a jacket for her along with rekindling my interest in garments. It has been fun, a little frustrating (not the best pattern instructions...it is missing some key construction details.). But getting it done.
plus, i need to justify that serger I paid $900 for 3 years ago and have rarely used.
