Stash Busting! Nr. 2
I made this halter top yesterday too, the pattern is from a Danish fabric company called Stoff & Stil. They have a lovely shop in Malmö, which I often go to & spend far too much money each time. The halter has a sort of racer back, that I love! The pleating has abit too much fabric in it for my liking, so if I make this again, I’ll have to tweak the pattern.
The halter weighs 160 grams (0,16 kilos) leftover scraps will be used for another project.
Stash Busting! Nr.1
This is the first thing I made for the Use you stash challenge. I know it doesn’t officially start until Monday, but as I work a full-time job with varying shifts, I thought I’d get a head start on my day off.
I plan on making this in a few other fabrics, the neckline isn’t quiet right, but the next top should be better. The pattern is from Burda, issue 2/2010, can also be found here.
I adjusted the neckline, opened it up more, added to the shoulder & widened the arm.
The top weighs 130 grams (0,13 kilos) according to my kitchen scale, that just feels like such a tiny amount =/ I still have some scraps left, that I will use for another project.
Fabric Junkie!?!
I was going through some old photos & found this. One day, 6 years ago, I took out all my fabrics & covered my living room floor with them. I’d like to say my collection has shrunk, but I’m afraid it has just grown & grown!
But what’s a fabric junkie to do?
