I just finished ordering 45 yards of unbleached muslin (108" wide). This should be enough for all the tunics that this KofC group is going to need. My friend will bring by a single yard so he can visualize just how this will make 2 tunics. I will give them general washing instruction and tell them do not put in the dryer. Hang to dry and opps they will have to iron them. I Will be supervise 8 men cutting 4 men and 2 women in how to get this going quickly. I will put my serger to use on the primary seams that should make short order. I even have a couple extra machines if they have a couple others who want to sew. Now I have to figure out how much thread and how many pair of scissors to cut the fabrics. Believe me it won't be my expensive sheers. The fabric will be here in 6-10 business that will put us almost to the middle of July to prepare for a marathon of sewing. If they can come up with a couple other people to do some sewing I have a couple extra machines that can be used too.
